Ballet Dancer by Demetre H Chiparus
Elegant silvered bronze and ivory Art Deco figure of an old-time ballet dancer on a carved brown onyx base. Her face is beautiful and both it and her hands are exquisitely carved. 
Date: circa 1925
Height: 34cm (13.5 inches) including base
Signed: Chiparus
Condition: Very good: minor paint loss on silvering of right arm and a few tiny hairlines in the ivory, commensurate with age. None of these detract from her appearance.
Illustrated in "Chiparus" by Alberto Shayo, Art Deco Sculpture” by Victor Arwas and “Art Deco & Other Figures” by Bryan Catley.
