Ron Lee Clown & Santa Figurines on Onyx Bases

Description

Ron Lee is one of America's most beloved clown and collectible figurine artists, known for his vibrant, hand-painted resin sculptures mounted on natural onyx or marble bases. Each piece is individually signed and numbered, making them prized among serious collectors of American artist figurines. These two pieces, dated 1996, represent Lee's signature style — whimsical characters rendered with extraordinary color, movement, and joy. The set includes a charming elf or jester figure in teal and gold costume on a layered onyx base, and a larger tableau featuring a Mardi Gras-style jester performing before a seated Santa Claus on a throne, also mounted on a polished onyx base. The Santa piece is particularly detailed, with holly accents, candlestick finials on the throne, and rich red velvet-toned robes rendered in fine painted resin. Both pieces carry the Ron Lee copyright mark and are consistent with his World of Clowns collection, which has been in continuous demand since the 1970s. These make an exceptional holiday display or a centerpiece addition to any Ron Lee or clown art collection.
