"Sigrid", Exceedingly Rare Art Deco Sculpture, Forest Green, Bopp Pottery
About the Item
A striking example of Art Deco ceramic sculpture, this female head was made by David Seyler for the Harold Bopp Pottery in northern Kentucky, in the brief period before it became the Kenton Hills pottery in 1940. Bopp had been the superintendent of Rookwood's famed pottery for years, until 1939 when he suggested certain innovations which were rejected by the owners. He began his own pottery, employing artists such as Seyler and William Hentschel. Given the extremely short period when Bopp's pottery operated under his own name, this piece is highly rare and unusual. This piece is enrobed in a shiny, forest green glaze, adding additional depth and mystery to the subject's expression.

- Rare Art Deco Bronze Sculpture “Mischievous” by Paul PhilippeLocated in Shippensburg, PAPAUL PHILIPPE Polish/French, 1870-1930 "Mischievous" Polychromed gilt bronze over original marble base signed in cast "P. PHILIPPE" signed in cast "i9.R / France" with foundry seal of A.G. Paris Item # 212MPH15S An exquisite and rare example of Paul Philippe's Mischievous finished in a brilliant polychromed gilt, the young woman grabs her reddish-brown hair in hand while looking off into the corner with a sly look in her eyes that suggests she holds a secret that we will never know. The base signature is captured directly from the mold. Situated over its original faceted base. A very fine work. ARTIST Born in Thorn in Poland in 1870, Paul Philippe studied under Antonin Larroux at the École des Beaux-Arts after moving to Paris, France around 1900. He exhibited extensively at all of the major French salons and developed his own voice in sculpture by focusing his ouevre around the movement of the female body, often depicting exotic models in highly theatrical poses with a loose adherence to realism in his idealized visions. He walked a fine line between Art Nouveau and Art Deco while his figures do tend towards the latter. He executed figures in bronze and chryselephantine and worked with some of the best foundries in France and Germany. Many examples of his work are held in the Art Deco Museum in Moscow, Russia.
