Metal Sculpture

It's a very choice piece of French Art Deco.

You have no man-cave?

 

@scoutshouse I have a man cave but this doesn't fit that decor by any means. I broke my leg so I am just going through stuff I had around to learn more. I don't have a particular liking for art per say. I have antique saws, horseshoes, fishing rods, yokes, milk cans around that we enjoy. But this isn't something we would display anywhere.

 

now that you know what it is....you can get a better handle on a fair price....i would think?

 

Did no one look at the SOLD prices on the auction link I posted?

 

I don't like links...
unless they are sausage ....

 

No, but I knew it was a ringer. Just waiting to see where it went

 

@Jivvy I saw those prices but that looks a bit different. But pretty neat. Maybe worth a few hundred at least for all those years of storage...it is like rent for an antique.

 

2013....that's ages ago......

 

Oh yes, and moneyed car people aren't nearly as crazy as there were six years ago, owait, yes they are.

By all means, don't contact Bonham's.

 

Us space geeks would love that thing. Very very saleable.

 

I contacted Bonhams. I will keep everyone in the loop. Thanks again @Jivvy

 

Thank you -- follow ups are one my favorite things!

Jason at Bonhams said it looks alot like this one shown here. He is reaching out to his colleagues to discuss next steps.

 

Excellent!

 

Here is the latest. Looks like it should be in an auction in October.

 

Congrats, congrats, I hope it "really skyrockets!"

 

Exciting!

I'm sure a few here were privately gnashing their teeth, thinking you'd put it back on ice, @NCGregory! Lol

I know I was

Better to have it used and appreciated. Smart!

 

10% commission is great. Good luck moving forward!

 

Great thread...!!! Good luck !!!
