Description from the seller
No reserve price!
Elegant and unusual secretary's accessory (letter holder, paper clip), Napoleon III.
The piece features an expressive patinated bronze sculpture representing a detailed hand with a lacy and ornate cuff.
The sculpture is mounted on a solid rectangular base of dark green Verde Antico marble with native white veining (Verde Antico style), with beveled edges.
An excellent example of classical, collectible desktop decorative art.
Excellent vintage condition. Shows natural patina of time on the bronze. Marble intact, with no flaws or significant chips along the edges.
Seller's Story
Antiques are my great passion; all the items I have on auction were found at antique fairs and antique shops mainly from the Lisbon area, but also from the rest of Portugal, a country with a centuries-old history and many fabulous pieces and objects from this long journey, which I present here for auction. Only pieces of good quality, distinctly original, and obviously beautiful. Guarantee of quality and great care in the shipping of the items. Thank you.
