Crackle Glazed Ceramic Art Deco Woman on Antelope Cubist

This stunning French crackle-glazed cubist figure is compelling and unique. The stylized female form sitting on top of the stylized antelope is supported by a sculpted geometric base. This piece has all the earmarks of a great European inspired image, the figure could have been designed or inspired by Hagenauer of the Austrian school. There are model numbers on the bottom, rather hard to read: #2268 with letter “I”above it.

It is a wonderful sculpture with lots of geometric, angled  design, along with a faceted base which could be used as a flower frog with  all of the openings around if  filled with flowers. Considerable work was put into this figurine  and is finished with a crackle clear glaze. which  was a popular technique  for animal and figural statues during the Art Deco period: leaping greyhounds, squirrels, rabbits and elephants. OH MY!
