Chase Art Deco Cat Doorstop by Walter Von Nessen

Item #2746 SOLD

Solid polished brass Chase Art Deco Cat Doorstop designed by Walter Von Nessen. Very important design with chrome and black paint circa 1932.  Displayed in the Brooklyn Museum of Decorative Arts  from the show “Machine Age in America!”  One of my favorites from the series of Chase doorstop and also bookends designed during this prolific period of American Industrial Design.
