'The Dual' by Limousin
A large and impressive dimpled (tapped) green patinated spelter male in a loin cloth, fighting with a brown patinated stylised lion. Mounted on a large portorro marble base with ribbed detail to the front, measuring 34 inches by 7.5 inches and with a height of 22 inches (86x19x56cm). The whole piece is in excellent original condition, but there is a small line across the lions tail which could be a join from new or a possible old repair.

'L'Echo'
A handsome French man, made of spelter with a bronze patination by either Cipriani or Joe De Roncourt - although apparently unsigned. He is large at 14 inches high and mounted on a canted edge Portorro Extra base which measures 24 inches long and 8.5 inches deep. He is in excellent condition.
There is a connection between Cipriani and J. De Roncourt who both signed this statue and I have had this piece by both artists. Produced in 1935, according to the original makers brochure - Societe Francaise des Bronzes and Fontes D'Art.

'Alerte' by De Roncourt
A perfect example of this bronze patinated spelter figure, signed in the black marble base J. De Roncourt. Measures 22 inches long by 17 inches high and approximately 7 inches deep. In stunning as-new condition - another one owner example which has been preserved immaculately.
Dated 1935 according to the original Founders catalogue.

Log-Man
Although this enormous male is unsigned, I am sure it is by Joe De Roncourt. He stands 22 inches tall and is mounted on a 27.5 inch base of maroon marble with chrome bars and curved maroon marble and onyx intersections. Condition is very good.

Nuart Pierrotte
American white metal, pewter finish, 7 inch pierrotte clown statue, stamped Nuart Creations, USA, in excellent condition.

'The Hunter' by Uriano
French spelter male hunter in a loin cloth, an unsigned Uriano. He measures approximately 18 inches long by 12.5 high by 5 deep (46cm x 32cm high x 13cm deep). He has a bronzed patina and is mounted on a black marble base. Condition is good.

'Belluaire' by J. De Roncourt
Absolutely stunning French spelter man in loin cloth walking his 2 Panthers, as frequently seen around Hyde Park. This is a wonderful, strong powerful statue in true Joe de Roncourt fashion but this one is unsigned (but I have had the signed versions previously). Statues are mounted on a black marble base that measures a huge 32.5 inches long by a massive 9.5 inches deep (83 X 24cm). The total height of the man is 22.5 inches (57cm). All figures have a black patina. Condition is very good with just the usual expected base edge nibbles.
Dated 1935 according to the original Founders catalogue.

'The Fisherman' by Joe De Roncourt
A green patinated French spelter man, depicted as a handsome fisherman pulling a net full of fish. He is mounted on a black marble and cream onyx base measuring 28 inches long and 6 inches deep and signed J. De Rochard to one end of the base. The man stands 16 inches high and the condition is extremely good with just a few minor edge nibbles to the marble.
