This golden bronze sculpture pays tribute to the celebrated Ours Blanc (White Bear) by French sculptor François Pompon (1855–1933) — a masterpiece that transformed early 20th-century animal sculpture through its radical simplicity and purity of line. First exhibited at the Salon d’Automne in 1922, Pompon’s polar bear became an icon of modern sculpture, admired for its calm power and essential form.

Cast in museum-quality bronze and hand-polished to a warm golden sheen, this contemporary interpretation reimagines Pompon’s timeless silhouette with a striking openwork design. The perforated body creates a delicate interplay of light and shadow, giving the sculpture an unexpected sense of transparency and rhythm — as if the bear were made of air and movement rather than metal.

Every detail is crafted using the traditional lost-wax technique, ensuring exceptional precision, smooth contours, and a reflective surface that celebrates the material’s natural brilliance. Both sculptural and architectural, it makes a captivating centrepiece for modern interiors, blending French modernist heritage with contemporary design sensibility.
