A great old Austrian bronze.

 

Here we have one of the rare gilt table lamps in good condition 

 

Depicting an Austrian peasant boy resting under a tree and spending his time with carving something. You can see some shavings on his pants.

The spot in front of the boy looks like having served as a pin dish.

The heavy solid lamp must have been sculptured by an excellent artist, even though there is no signature other than ‘AUSTRIA’ which was quite often the case. Just a few made it and could leave the anonymous group of sculptors and became famous, like Peter Tereszczuk, Carl Kauba, Bruno Zach, just to mention a few names. 

Remember that domestic shipping is free for all our Vienna Bronzes, regardless of size, weight and value. And it is also free for our friends outside the U.S. if we can combine three and more. This refers to all countries worldwide. No exceptions. This sculpture is very heavy.

We strongly recommend rewiring the lamp which has still an old cord and plug.  No safety guarantee because of its age.
