A stunning rare Art Deco
Austrian metal figure by Lorenzl,
circa 1930.
depicting a stylish young lady,
in a split skirt dress
cold-painted in shades of silver and gold with enamelled flower details
mounted on an oval honey onyx plinth-
9.5n/24cm high
Signed Lorenzl and stamped Austria

This beautiful figure has wonderful styling
typical Lorenzl features.
This is an exceptionally good quality sculpture by Lorenzl,
easily mistaken for a bronze, with the floral details on her skirt typical of work done in Vienna (sometimes signed by the artist Crejo).
She is in great condition with only very slight ageing to the cold-painted finish.

Joseph Lorenzl, Austrian 1892-1950.
Probably now one of the best known of the Art Deco period
sculptors,
Lorenzl is famous for his depiction of the slim boyish shape,
so desired in the 1920's, sculpting a wide range of figures
in dancing or coquettish poses.
He also designed for the famous firms of Goldscheider,
Hutschenreuther and Keramos.
