Description from the seller

Here we have a French copper boy figurine. The boy rests dreamily his hand on his chin with his favorite hat. This beautiful subject sits on an equally copper base. There is a beautiful patina on the figurine.

Considering the age we think the piece is in great vintage condition.
This type of antique decoration is a classic example of a Victorian desk accessory. The presse-papiers made of solid brass were often manufactured in the 19th century in France or England and usually depict a resting or sleeping boy
Victorian brass desk, paperweight, solid brass reclining figurine of a boy, French brass statue of a reclining boy with a hat
Well packed and insured, shipped with track and trace
