In medieval times, ancient architects and stone carvers used gargoyles on buildings as a way to ward off evil spirits and bad luck. Made of cold cast resin, this pensive winged gargoyle is a representation of Rodin's "The Thinker". Measuring 7 1/2 inches tall, 4 1/2 inches wide, and 3 5/8 inches deep, he'll make a great addition to your home. This gargoyle also makes a great present for the holidays or for housewarming gifts. It looks great on bookshelves, end tables and nightstands.
