"Tusca 'parakeet' Animal Sculpture Bird Bronze Art Nouveau, Austria Ca 1910"
Sculpture of a bird (parakeet) in bronze in the spirit and period of Art Nouveau. Very realistic and of good quality, in the style of 'bronze of Vienna', piece signed TUSCA + monogram K in a circle (see image) around 1910, original patina in perfect condition. This is a smoker's kit, matchbox holder and desk ashtray. We found on the web, from this artist TUSCA, a similar sculpture model but with a Bulldog dog.
