Large Majestic & Lifelike Antique Alabaster Bald Eagle Sculpture w. Glass Eyes
Located in Lisse, NL
Magnificent hand-carved eagle on a rock sculpture.
Most people are not capable of drawing a picture of an eagle, but this artist has sculpted a majestic and lifelike eagle out of a single rock of alabaster. That, to us, is amazing and it takes a truly gifted artisan. This beautifully hand carved eagle has exactly the strong and streamlined frame, the sharp eyes and the strong claws that this born predator needs in order to survive and prosper. This born hunter is a joy to watch. We date this marvelous eagle to around 1890-1900 and this life-like and very alert eagle is in excellent condition. The sculptor could not have picked a better rock of alabaster, because the many lines in this striking mineral stone are like the many small feathers that together make the 'fur' and wings of this majestic eagle. This eagle clearly just heard or saw something happening on the right of him, because his senses are clearly heightened and he looks ready to take off any second. Not only is this one of the most realistic eagle sculptures, it also has the best polished surface we have ever seen. From the tiny holes that you can see in the base (in image 14) it is clear that there would have been an antique brass...

Antique Wall / Corner Coat Rack w Carved Rams & Embossed Leather by M.J. Slager
Located in Lisse, NL
Unique and highly decorative, work of art coat rack.
When we find an antique that is this good in terms of its design AND in terms of the quality of the workmanship then the first thing we do is to look for a signature. And we were really (and pleasantly) surprised to find the signature of MJ Slager in the far right, bottom corner. Only once before have we seen and owned and sold another stunning antique by this highly skilled artist. And when you realize that there have never been any other pieces of this artist available on the internet anywhere (apart from the stunning folding screen that we sold via 1stdibs and that you can see in image 19 of this listing) then you will understand how special it was for us that this coat rack by MJ Slager too landed on our path. Thinking of the odds of this happening, we can only describe it as a blessing. Like we described in that previous listing: when you look at the beauty, the detail and the overal workmanship it is unbelievable that such a skilled artist did not go on and have a bigger career. As more often has been the case here in Holland, maybe the first world war had something to do with it.
So this antique coat rack is unique for more reasons than one, but one of them is the design. Antique corner coat racks...

Antique French Bronze Pheasant and Weasel by Jules Moigniez
Located in Newark, England
Pheasant and Weasel
From our Sculpture collection, we are delighted to offer this French Bronze Pheasant by Jules Moigniez. The French Bronze of good scale cast with a large male Pheasant clambering upon a rocky outcrop startled by a Weasel hiding within the foliage. The Pheasant naturalistically cast with individual feathers visible, sharp claws and spurs above the foot. The Weasel sits hidden in the foliage visible from viewing the French Bronze from the side as it shocks the Pheasant. The French Bronze signed to the front left on a rock face J. Moigniez (Jules Moigniez). The bronze sculpture dates to the late 19th century belle époque period Circa 1870.
Jules Moigniez (1835-1894) was born at Senlis, Oise, just north of Paris, France on the 28 May 1835 the son of a metal gilder. Moigniez studied under Paul Comoléra (1813-1890) a specialist Animalia sculptor. It is clear that Moigniez’s career in Animalia was passed down from his tutors specialism in Animalia and in particular birds. Moigniez father bought a foundry specifically to cast his son’s sculptures. This gave Moigniez a huge advantage compared to other artist as it greatly reduced his costs during manufacturing and increased productivity keeping the process in-house. Moigniez throughout his career became known for this Animalia sculptures...
