Bookends toucans Maurice Frécourt regule silver marble green art deco

This pair of book clampts is very elegant, it was made by maurice frécourt. Maurice frécourt began practising in 1890, a date that is often wrongly given as the date of his birth. His youth and enthusiasm allowed him to make a name for himself in the field of bronze arts of the belle epoque. But it was from the salon of 1920 that he acquired fame and prestige, happily translating the hieratic imperatives of the art deco style into his vision of the animal world. His variations on the elephant, the panther and the monkey have become classics of stylized animal representation. It is a silver regulator of good quality, guaranteed 1930, we are here in a beautiful art-deco production, they are toucans who hold a ball in their spouts bases on a green marble base. We report friction and wear on the subjects, an apparent screw on the base of a pelican on the back, a ball that is to be reattached on one of the spouts, and two ginnings on the corners of the marble bases, however nothing very dramatic the whole remains in a suitable general condition. The set weighs a weight of 1.02 kilograms. Sold uncleaned. Thank you for detailing the photos. Photos are an integral part of the description. Size: Total height: 14 cm. Total width: 12 cm.
