About the Item

Marvelous and signed, sitting puppy dog sculpture with glass eyes. This stunning alabaster puppy sculpture is another one of our recent great finds. If you have an eye for top quality hand-crafted sculptures of animals in general and of dogs in particular then you will immediately realize that this sitting puppy sculpture can only be the work of a master craftsman. On one of the sides of the base is the signature of the sculptor "E. Beck", which refers to Austrian artisan Ernst Beck (1879-1941). It never ceases to amaze us when an artist is capable of perfectly capturing the soul of another living being in a sculpture. It seems a god given talent that is only very rarely discovered anymore. We feel this artisan left us (art lovers) a truly remarkable and endearing sculpture of museum quality and condition which will look great no matter where you decide to have it on display. Again great value for money. Also, because our fair price for this antique work of art includes perfect packing and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 workdays. Maximum width x height x depth: 6.2 x 6.1 x 4.9 inches. Weight: 8.2 pounds. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again). You can shop all our 1000+ listings by pushing the button that reads 'View All From Seller'.

Stylish Art Deco Lady in Dress with Her Greyhounds Sculpture on a Marble Base
Located in Lisse, NL
Wonderful work of art for displaying on a side table, dresser etc. This Art Deco sculpture embodies everything we love about art and antiques. The beautiful and realistic, young female in her 1920s dress and hairdo is a work of art (deco) by herself. Flanked by her equally stylish greyhound dogs this lady sculpture will look marvellous no matter where you decide to put her on display. Apart from minor wear (consistent with age) this work of art is in excellent condition and ready for you to enjoy. The colors of the marble base combined with the patina of the sculptures is a match made in heaven and we expect this refined lady to find a new home soon. Especially when taken into account that perfect packing and worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days is free. Maximum height x width x depth: 11 x 16 x 4.3 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by.
