What a rarity!  Geroge Lavroff was a Russian born sculptor who made many fine Art Deco statues in France - especially animal studies - before returning to his native Russia in 1935.  His realitvely short period as a true Deco sculptor could be why his work is so eagerly collected and fetches some of the highest prices for Art Deco bronze animals. 

This - unsigned but certainly by Lavroff - group of angel fish swimming in unison are a great example of his skill.  They are a really impressive piece of Art Deco sculpture.  They have great shape and a wonderful green patina, which contrasts nicely with the black marble angular base.

It would make a great Art Deco statement if placed in a bathroom,  Please email for more images.

Size: Approximately 38 cms tall, 38 cms wide

Condition: Overall condition is very good, some small chips to the marble (mainly to rear).  I am not sure if this is intentional, but the top of the fin to the taller fish curles forward - just mentioned for accuracy, though this could be part of the design and done at time of production.
