獨立式三維雕刻品，比實物尺寸小，通常具有人(或動物)的形象，但也可能沒有，常為較大型作品的縮小版本。雖在某些情況下，本詞彙可能與「小雕像」互換使用，但差別在於小塑像一定是獨立式的，但小雕像則可能是較大作品的部分，例如分枝燭臺或鏡子上的細部裝飾。此外，小塑像可能呈現人物之外的物件，而小雕像所呈現的一定是人類、動物或神話人物。

英文....

Three-dimensional, free-standing sculptures that are smaller than life-size and usually but not always figural. They are often reduced versions of larger works. While the term may be used interchangeably with "figurine" in certain situations, it differs in that a statuette is always free-standing while a figurine may be part of a larger work, such as a decorative detail on a candelabra or mirror. Also, a statuette may represent objects other than a figure, while a figurine always represents a human, animal, or mythical figure.
