ANTIQUE EAGLE STATUE MARBLE ALABASTER ART DECO NOUVEAN BAUHAUS DESIGN MODERNIST

ANTIQUE EAGLE STATUE MARBLE ALABASTER ART DECO NOUVEAN BAUHAUS DESIGN MODERNIST. SIZE= 8 1/4" TALL X 2 7/8" WIDE X 3 3/4" DEEP CONDITION: THIS OWL HAS A CHIP OFF OF HIS BEEK. HE ALSO HAS A CHIP ON HIS RIGHT EYE BROW. APP. SIZE ON BEEK.= OFF THE END I WOULD SAY APP. 1/8" OFF HIS RIGHT EYEBROW=TOTAL OF 1/4" ACROSS BUT IT STARTS OUT FROM THE TOP AS ABOUT APP. 2/8" THEN GETS BIGGER AS WE GO DOWN. iT EVENTUALLY GOES AL THE WAY DOWN TO HIS ORANGE EYE APP. 1/4" VERITCLE. FORTUNTELY WITH THE COLOR OF THIS STATUE IT BLENDS SO WELL THAT A LOT OF THE DAMAGE REALLY DOESN'T SHOW. ONCE I LOOK AT IT HE HAS A LOT OF CHIPS MOST OF THEM ARE SMALL ENOUGH TO BLEND IN WITH HIS ITTALIAN CARRARA VEINED MARBLE OR ALABASTER THAT I DON'T EVEN CARE. HE IS A MAJESTIC BIRD. A TRUE PATRIOT. 4 OF HIS FEET HAVE CHIPS ON THEM. THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE STATUE WHERE HE STANDS HAS BEEN KNOCKED ARROUND WHEN PEOPLE HANDLING HIM. SITTING ON A SHELF WITH HIS TAIL TOWARD YOU AND HIS HEAD TO THE SIDE HE LOOKS GREAT. I WILL TRY TO PHOTOGRAPH HIS FEET AND THE OTHER CHIPS A LITTLE BETTER SO I CAN PUT THEM ON THE LISTING. THE VERY END OF HIS TAIL HAS A NICK AND THERE IS SOME RUBING ON THE OUTSIDE RIDGE WHERE HIS FEATHERS MEET. OUTSIDE OF THE BEEK AND THE EYEBROW THE OTHER DAMAGE IS VERY INSIGNIFICANT FOR THIS PIECE. I REALLY LIKE HIM ANYWAY. IF SOMEONE WANTS TO RETURN HIM I WILL KEEP HIM FOR MYSELF. THAT'S HOW MUCH I LIKE HIM. HIS ORANGE AND BLACK PUPIL GLASS EYES ARE ON ALERT BUT NOT MEAN LOOKING.
