A PAIR OF ART DECO SILVERED BRONZE CHAMELEON BOOKENDS
RISCHMANN, CIRCA 1925

modelled with their body in extension, on an integral stepped base, with a marble base, stamped Rischmann, made in France to bronze base, 16cm total height


Estimate $400 - $600

Sold for $400

overall condition appears to be good., the silvered figures appear to be tarnished and perhaps have lost part of their coating; one tail has been repaired and sits asymmetrically to its companion. A chip is visible to the one corner of a marble base
