Phoenix In Gilded Bronze And Silvered Bronze Forming A Ring Sizer

A rare and unusual bronze from the Napoleon III period, a very finely worked phoenix in gilt bronze and silver bronze.
The details of the chiseling are superb and this bronze has a lot of allure.
The phoenix is placed on a leafy branch itself placed on a rocky mound.
The details are very nicely highlighted:
the eyes, the beak, the chiseling work in the feathers etc...
The mixture of gilt and silver bronze is very happy with an alternation of color at the neck, on the wings and in the base.
A push button at the base of the tail allows access to an opening system releasing a cache in the body of the bird and under its wings.
The mechanism works very well.

An unusual and rare bronze with a very beautiful quality of execution.

Dimensions:
22 cm long by 10 cm wide and 16 cm high
