About the Item

The ribbons of cascading hair made out of brass add dimension to the hand hammered Alpaca silver faceless form executed by the Austrian sculptor; Karl Schmidt. He worked for Hagenhauer until 1987 and then did his own designs. This is from 1989. It is a unique piece and there are no other variations of this. This is a great table top signed sculpture that has monumental height and presence. It is all hand wrought. The back of this sculpture is open as exemplified in the images and is signed there. Please note: it is no longer in perfect condition and has some small welding imperfections. Please note: it is not kept on premise. PLEASE NOTE: WE HAVE JUST DROPPED THE PRICE WAY DOWN TO OUR FINAL PRICE OF $9,780.00. IT WAS LISTED AT $15,800.00.
