Decorative and artistic resin objects

This category includes a selection of decorative and artistic objects made in resin, emblematic material of popular decorative productions from the mid-20th century until the 1990s.
Often molded and then painted, these objects present a wide variety of styles, ranging from kitsch assumed to tourist souvenir, passing through Religious figures, fancy sculptures, or reproductions of classical works.

Among the types of objects you can find here:

• Decorative statuettes and busts (persons, animals, musicians, etc.)

• Religious figures (virges, saints, angels)

• Souvenir objects cities or regions (often kitsch or humorous)

• Wall decorations in relief

• Fancy or humorous objects of the 1970s and 1990s

• Living room or fireplace tumblers

These pieces, sometimes produced in mass, sometimes rarer, evoke a time when resin allowed all formal fantasies. They are intended for both retro design enthusiasts and vintage popular culture enthusiasts.

Decorative objects and popular resin expressions (1960–1990)

Through this collection of decorative resin objects, we explore a form of artistic and artisanal production emblematic of the second half of the 20th century. This accessible and malleable material has allowed the massive diffusion of decorative forms formerly reserved for noble materials.

From religious statuettes to regional memories to humorous or symbolic representations, these objects bear witness to both popular tastes, consumption patterns, and the creativity of the artisans and industrialists of the time.

Each piece, sometimes kitsch, sometimes touching, is part of the collective imagination of a past era, but always present in our visual memories.
