ART DECO HOT-CAST BRONZE SNARLING LEOPARD Foundry Mark

THIS AUCTION IS FOR THE MOST STUNNING PORTRAYAL OF A WILD AFRICAN LEOPARD.......HOT-CAST IN GENUINE BRONZE METAL

WHAT A TRULY MAJESTIC CREATURE HE IS.........HIS STRONG MUSCULAR BODY ALERT AS HE BECOMES AWARE OF SOMETHING MOVING IN THE AFRICAN BUSH......& JUST LOOK AT THAT JAW!.........HE'S DEFINITELY SEEN OR HEARD SOMETHING IN THE UNDERGROWTH FROM HIS VANTAGE POINT ON A ROCKY OUTCROP!..........PLEASE SUPERSIZE IMAGES BELOW FOR BETTER VIEWING

I DO EMPHASISE HE IS GENUINE BRONZE!.......

AT SOME POINT IT APPEARS HE WAS MOUNTED ON A BASE....THERE ARE THREE SCREW HOLES ON THE UNDERSIDE...BUT I THINK HE LOOKS AMAZING JUST AS HE IS.....IF THE WINNING BIDDER PREFERS A BASE, THEY ARE QUITE EASILY & CHEAPLY  AVAILABLE AT YOUR LOCAL  MONUMENTAL/STONE MASONS.....AN OFFCUT OF MARBLE OR SLATE WOULD SUFFICE

I DIDN'T NOTICE WHEN TAKING PHOTOS, BUT THERE APPEARS TO BE A FOUNDRY MARK IN THE FORM OF TWO SQUARES IMPRESSED ON THE REAR OF THE BRONZE.....WITH SOME LETTERING OR SYMBOLS INSIDE...IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE FURTHER PHOTOS, PLEASE EMAIL ME

A TRULY STUNNING SCULPTURE WHICH IS VERY MUCH IN THE ART DECO STYLE WHICH WOULD MAKE A WONDERFUL DISPLAY IN ANY ENVIRONMENT....INCLUDING OUTDOORS, AS GENUINE BRONZE CANNOT RUST

MEASUREMENTS APPROX 9 1/2" (24 CMS)  WIDE X  4" (10 CMS)  X 5" (13 CMS)

STARTING AT 99P WITH NO RESERVE  TO HELP KEEP MY LISTING COSTS DOWN.........& TO ATTRACT MAXIMUM VIEWERS.........I FEEL CERTAIN THAT SUCH A BEAUTIFUL BRONZE WILL ATTAIN ITS TRUE VALUE

PLEASE GET YOUR BIDS IN EARLY.......I HAVE SO MANY EMAILS AFTER END OF AUCTION FROM DISAPPOINTED WOULD-BE BUYERS.......AS THEY COULDN'T GET THEIR BIDS IN ON TIME......OR FORGET WHEN AUCTION ENDS!

• I WITHHOLD BIDDERS IDENTITIES AT THE REQUEST OF DEALERS WHO FREQUENTLY BUY FROM ME......THEY DO NOT WISH TO DISCLOSE WHERE THEY ARE BUYING....OR WHAT THEY HAVE PAID......I TRUST THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM WITH OTHER BIDDERS
