About the Item
Beautiful bronze pig figurine as a Pen Wipe, early 20th century – patinated
This finely crafted, unpainted Viennese bronze or brass figurine is believed to date from the early 20th century. Discovered during an estate sale in Vienna, it embodies the meticulous artistry and charm of classic Austrian bronze miniatures. Although it bears no maker's mark, the craftsmanship adheres to the traditional techniques of Viennese bronze work – each figurine is individually cast, hand-modeled, and often painted in multiple layers. This example is unpainted, allowing the natural bronze patina to show through and highlighting the exquisite details of the form. In excellent condition with a beautiful patina, this piece would be a special addition to any collection of Viennese bronzes, desk figurines, or early 20th-century European applied arts.
