Lucille Sevin (French, born pre 1920- died c.1940), 'Young woman with doves', an Art Deco silvered and patinated bronze and carved ivory figure, c.1930, signed 'Sevin' in the bronze, 'Etling Paris' engraved on the base, Cast by Etling from a model by Sevin and depicting a young woman wearing a pleated and split skirt, two birds sit on one of her hands feeding from a bunch of grapes she holds in her other hand, on stepped octagonal marble base, 56 cm high Property of a Lady.
Ivory birds: no damage detected - but there are a few marks/spots and dirt and dust on the surfaces. Bronze: the silvered surface has tarnished and streaked overall; some rubbing and marks. The patinated skirt has a white mark on the back. Joint/fixing beginning to show on the front top of her thigh and her arms (not damage, how it is made). Good detail on hair and skirt. Base: some filled spots. A few small nicks and chips to the edges. Natural wear in keeping with age. Please note that this lot contains ivory. Ivory is an endangered material with very strict rules about export/import. If you plan to take this lot out of the UK please check with your shipper or Country regulations that you can before bidding. Some countries do not allow the importation or exportation of ivory. A Bill is due to become law in the UK in the near future that limits the buying and selling of ivory. Proposed in the new UK regulations is ‘10% minimus’ of ivory on items made pre-1947.
