ITEM DESCRIPTION DescriptionUp for your consideration is an one-of-a-kin d French Art Nouveau pottery piece, made by Ferdinand Faivre for potter Edmond Lachenal. The piece is completely hand-made and formed. Lachenal made some of the most important French Art Nouveau pottery pieces, and this is a fine example I have only seen 2 other hand-made figures (not this design, which is original) from this maker. One sold for $13,000 at auction, and the other hammered for $9000 (not including the 25% buyer's premium. A lesser piece (a nymph) sold for $3500, All the others I have seen are in museums. SizeThe piece measures 10.5" tall, 7.5" wide, and 6.5" deep. Overall, it weighs just under 5 lbs. ConditionOverall, the piece is in very good condition. There is a chip to the underside, which is only visible when you pick the piece up and look at the underside. There is some glaze loss to a few raised areas (the Satyr's tail, the woman's breast, and the upper portion, as shown). These are not chips, but glaze level signs of wear Shipping Costs/Terms SHIPPING COST FOR THIS ITEM IS $32.50 This quote is for the Continental U.S. only, and the item will be sent vis UPS or USPS.
