Lot 631

An Art Deco bronze and ivory figure, lady, early 20th century, in the manner of Josef Lorenzl, the head tipped to one side and hands on hips, raised on a green onyx plinth, the retaining nut with monogram "S Co.". Height 17.5 cm (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: In our opinion this is a period Art Deco piece. Viewed under a jewellers loupe there is a very fine hairline crack running from the centre parting of her hair down to her right eyelid. Viewed under a jewellers loupe the ivory surface of the head has numerous light scratches. All the high points on her torso, to include breasts, buttons, elbows and both borders on her skirt, her right knee, left heel and both buttons on her shoe are rubbed through to the bronze. However this in my opinion does not detract from the overall appearance and effect.
