Superb and old sculpture advertising lamp in polychrome terracotta

for the JOB cigarette paper representing a young boy,

shirt, pants, suspenders, lighting a cigarette

with a packet of JOB cigarette paper at his feet.

This sculpture bears the signature A. De Ranieri

for Aristide De Raniéri (1880 - 1914)

also presence of a Fontaine et Durieux factory stamp

This sculpture presents all its patina and original color.

Note that the head was previously broken and glued,

easily restored by a professional, 

to report 2 small chips around

and a poorly glued piece to the tree trunk at the back.

It was originally supposed to have a small nameplate on the front base.  

Very nice decorative and collector's item
