Superb bronze letter opener dating from the 19ᵉ century, illustrating
remarkable chasing work. The handle is adorned with a finely carved
hunting dog, reclining in an elegant and realistic posture.
The
blade, richly decorated with vegetal motifs and scrolls in relief, bears
witness to the refined aesthetics of the period, blending functionality
and artistry. The golden patina of the bronze, subtly aged, lends the
piece authentic charm and a unique cachet.
This object is not
only a refined office accessory, but also a true collector's item, ideal
for lovers of antiques and animal art.
It is in good antique condition. Please take a close look at the photos, they are an integral part of the description.
