Figure - AN EROTIC BRONZE PAPERWEIGHT - Bronze

An erotic bronze paperweight (often also referred to as desk erotica or pocket bronze) is a fascinating fusion of everyday utility and private, tangible art.

Especially in the late 19th and early 20th centuries (during Art Nouveau and Art Deco), these objects were very popular with collectors. They allowed exquisite craftsmanship to be showcased on the desk, while the erotic nature of the piece often remained discreet.
