I'm so lovin the Deco ladies with blue hair ! Fantastic
Wow! I have not ever seen anything quite like these!
I have been collecting Art Deco for over 20 years, over the years your taste improves and you purchase items with a better eye and more discerning in taste
They are remarkable and your so lucky to have them . I could never afford a collection like yours but love window shopping at your posts !
Season's Greetings to you and Yours, Amanda et al. Another anzengruber arrived from the Netherlands today: Till Eulenspiegel, I think!
All the best to you vetraio5o and family, which Anzengruber arrived? can you put up some images
Do you have a stall at the Sydney antique centre vetraio50?
Two male figures. One a kneeling boy candlestick ... He is normally paired with a Xmas tree. The other is a musician different to the "Volkstyp". He looks like the naughty Till Eulenspiegel. I'll post both in the next couple of days. These are quite different to the women. I noticed too that the mask that Leo did for Zaccagnini that appears here on CW recently was sold at auction.
Sold here:

Yes i remember this one, the owner contacted me with this several months earlier, hoping for free info, and wanted me to price it for him, after i told him that a valuation from our website would cost him $25, he did not want to pay, he tried to make it sound that he was a private person requesting some help, the final price you paid was correct, he tried for $100 more earlier, Regards David Freeman
Hi David. I was not the buyer. I'd just helped with identifying the mark for him here on CW. Lovely but damaged.
Oh now i understand, yes it it lovely , it can be repaired, is the purchaser in USA or Australia?
These are fabulous, especially the first one!...:-)
thanks still love them, still collecting more
