Mathura Head on Stand in Brick Red & Black by Currey & Company

The Mathura Head on Stand is a sculptural decorative accent that brings historical depth and quiet sophistication to an interior. Crafted from green stone and mounted on a metal stand finished in antique brass, the piece presents a striking balance of natural material and refined structure. The contrast between the richly toned stone and the warm metallic base gives the sculpture a grounded yet elevated presence.

Inspired by an ancient work housed in the Musee Guimet in Paris, the sculpture depicts the head of a Bodhisattva from India, characteristic of the Kushan Period of the 1st and 2nd centuries. The design captures the serene expression and stylized details associated with this era, translating an important cultural reference into a thoughtfully scaled decorative object.

Because the sculpture is made from natural stone, subtle variations in color, veining, and surface texture may occur from piece to piece. These organic differences enhance its authenticity and ensure that each Mathura Head on Stand is uniquely its own, offering a timeless accent suited to shelves, consoles, or curated vignettes.

Currey & Company, known today for its vibrant collection of lighting products, started its existence in 1988 as a purveyor of historic garden furnishings. When Robert B. Currey founded Garden Source Furnishings, the main focus of the company was the creation and marketing of classic garden furniture from the Winterthur Museum and the Smithsonian Institution. These collections were joined by a very American collection of garden whimsies, birdhouses and rustic twig furniture. Some lighting products were among these first offerings and by the early 1990?s the lighting category had become very important. Accordingly, the name of the company was changed to Currey & Company to embrace a new focus on products for the interior. Chandeliers and wall sconces today form a significant part of the company?s business and these goods are characterized by the attention and detailing that goes into their manufacturing and finishing. Currey & Company brings to the marketplace merchandise that not only speaks of the touch of the human hand, but also utilizes a myriad of natural materials. Hand forged iron products have long been the specialty of the company, but the range of materials has been extended to include a variety of materials such as hand-carved wood, porcelain and brass. ?Currey International? has made it possible for the company to develop and produce a variety of unique hand made products and materials. One of these is concrete hand formed to create fashionable furnishings of ?faux bois.? Seashells and other natural materials also figure strongly in the Currey & Company product line.
