William Hoppe Bronze Devil Satyr Head Antique c1875-1895 Statue Paperweight Bust For Sale

Patinated , antique cast bronze leering satyr / devil head by the artist William Hoppe. Measuring 3\' x 3.25\' x 5\" tall. Beautiful, original condition and filled with a type of plaster to add a nice heft. Stamped W. Hoppe S.F. ( German, ca. 1850 - 1910 ) ( William Hoppe, San Francisco ) where his studio was located. No repairs and in absolute pristine condition. Lovely patina. I have only seen a few of these paperweights ( sometimes sold as bookends ) pop up for sale over the years. Sotheby\'s in 2007 is the earliest recorded sale date. Obscure, quirky, engaging piece of art that absolutely will add fun and a touch of ornery to wherever he goes.
