Subject: A charming figural group depicting a young boy and a duck standing on tree-stump pedestals.
- Material: Patinated bronze or spelter with a dark, weathered finish.
- Style: Late 19th to early 20th century, potentially French Art Deco or Austrian in influence. Similar works from this era often include themes of nature and childhood innocence.
- Form: A rectangular base featuring a central recessed well, which could serve as a pin dish, inkwell stand, or ashtray.
- Condition: The piece shows an aged patina consistent with its vintage or antique nature. Prospective buyers should look for a founder's mark or artist's signature on the base or plinth, as these significantly impact value.
