French Bronze Art Sculptural Buckle Line Vautrin
-
Description
Belonged to the series "Rulked by Angels" created by Parisian art Jeweler Line Vautrin (1913-1997) circa 1945-1950, this lovely and uncommon cast bronze belt buckle is called "Le Choeur de Anges". A bespoken mini sculptural piece beyond functional and wearable, this buckle features a choir made of six angles on top, each slightly different, and four adorable birds peached on the bottom. A very whimsical piece by Line Vautrin. The buckle was branded on the back and remains in an impeccable condition.
