Bronze elephant sculpture. Signature at the back on base. 14"D × 14" W × 20"H.
Was gifted by a client after a renovations job was completed.
Deal Leng,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal.
The presented object appears to be a bronze vessel with the measurements of inches. The painting depicts D × 14" W × 20"H. This set reminds me of the 4 elephants which hold the hearth in the all. This piece was made in. These elephants were made by the French artist Jules Moigniez
Sadly no additional information for an artist with this name fitting in style and motif is given by reference books and databases.
Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in good condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 2.000 to 4.000 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
George
