Rare Antique Golf Putter that is of unknown origin and unknown name. Some people have told me that it is from the late 1800s, some have told me that it is from the early 1900s. The shaft look hand made and the head is one I have never seen before. I can’t find anything similar. Great for a collector or wall mounting. Check out some of my other items on here. Shop name is Dealinmike518. Hope to sell to you soon.

Rare Vintage “Mélodie” Female Dancer Metal Sculpture A striking vintage metal figure depicting an elegant young woman caught in a graceful, almost theatrical pose, her dress appearing to move around her as though she has been captured halfway through a dance. The sculpture has a wonderfully dramatic antique finish with warm bronze and gold-toned highlights, beautifully modelled facial features, flowing clothing and a decorative raised base. A small plaque to the front appears to read “MELODIE”, with a further inscription underneath that is less clear from the photographs. This is a particularly eye-catching decorative piece with strong Art Nouveau / Belle Époque-inspired styling, ideal for anyone who enjoys romantic figurative sculpture, vintage interiors or unusual statement pieces. Features?? Elegant female dancer / lady figure?? Metal construction?? Art Nouveau / Belle Époque-inspired appearance?? Flowing dress with beautifully sculpted folds?? Detailed face, hair and hand modelling?? Front plaque appears to read “MÉLODIE”?? Ornate sculpted base with swirling decorative motifs??? Classical European decorative style??? Attractive naturally aged finish and patina??? Excellent display piece for a cabinet, sideboard or fireplace?? Unusual gift for a collector of figurative or vintage sculpture?? Condition Presented in genuine vintage condition with visible age-related wear, surface rubbing, areas of finish loss, marks and patination throughout. There is also a noticeable split/crack to the lower black base, clearly visible in the photographs. This should be considered part of its current condition and character. The metal finish shows variations in colour and wear, particularly around the dress and raised areas. I have not identified the exact metal composition, so I would describe this simply as a vintage metal sculpture with bronze-effect finish rather than guaranteeing bronze. Please study all photographs carefully as they form an important part of the description. ? Mélodie – A Moment That Refuses to Stand Still There is something wonderfully theatrical about this figure. She does not stand stiffly or formally. Her body twists, one foot rises, her dress seems to catch an invisible breeze, and her hands hold the moment as though music has just begun somewhere beyond the room. Even the name Mélodie feels appropriate. A melody exists only through movement – one note leading into another – and this sculpture seems to capture exactly that idea in metal. Perhaps that is what makes older decorative figures like this so appealing. Long after the music, room and people that once surrounded them have disappeared, the movement remains. She is still dancing. ? Closing Line The music may have faded long ago, but Mélodie is still holding her pose – waiting for a new room in which to dance again. #Rare #Vintage #Melodie #MetalStatue #LadyStatue #FemaleFigure #Dancer #ArtNouveau #BelleEpoque #VintageSculpture #Figurine #BronzeEffect #DecorativeArt #AntiqueStyle #ClassicalDecor #Collectable #StatementPiece #VintageDecor.

This is a stunning and very rarely seen parrot figure from Spode Copelands dating to the early 20th Century. This magnificent bird is in excellent condition standing an impressive 10.5 inches (27cm) tall. It is beautifully sculpted with wings open, nestling on branches of a tree with superbly painted features and original glass eyes. I can find no restoration, repair, crazing or damage apart from one small hairline crack across one of the branches at the base of the sculpture. I believe the bird was carefully preserved as part of the’Bill Coles Collection’, an avid Spode collector. MAGNIFICENT RARE Copeland Spode – Huge PARROT Figure 10.5 Inches 27cm.
