This high quality plague doctor statue makes a dark and striking addition to any oddities, gothic décor, or macabre collection. The figure sits atop a coffin, holding a lantern with a book resting in his lap, giving the piece a grim, historical atmosphere.

Measuring approximately 5 1/8 inches tall by 4 3/4 inches long by 2 7/8 inches wide, it is compact enough for a shelf, desk, cabinet, or display case. The statue also features a felt bottom to help protect surfaces.

Plague doctors were medical figures during outbreaks of bubonic plague, most famously recognized for their long beaked masks. The beak was often filled with herbs, spices, or fragrant materials, as people believed disease spread through foul-smelling air. Today, the plague doctor has become an enduring symbol of medicine, mortality, and the eerie history of the Black Death.
