This little bronze desk piece belonged to my father who was for a short time the Federal Power Comissioner in 1915. I have always wondered about it because of its simple beauty. I have tried to find information about it without success. The letters C.O.LINDNER are cast in the base as you can see from one of the pictures. Please excuse the way the photos are positioned as I was unable to turn them..... they where positioned correctly on the computer.

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

It is wonderful and by style I think European around WWI.
I too had a bit of a look around but only found Doris Lindner, and this is not her style at all.
Lindner is a name from Flanders and The Netherlands so hopefully someone here may know more!
