About the Item

This exceptional 1920s Karl Hagenauer bronze lady golfer vide-poche / ashtray captures the refined, stylized aesthetic that defines Hagenauer’s celebrated early work. The bronze figure of a lady golfer, with her elongated and minimalist Art Deco form, exemplifies the iconic design language of the Werkstätte Hagenauer Wien, known for its playful yet sophisticated figural objects. The bronze golfer is mounted on a striking Italian black and brown marble base which appears to be Italian Nero Portoro, carved with a shallow dish shape that functions beautifully as a vide poche, ashtray, or catchall. Perfect for holding keys, coins, jewelry, cufflinks, or desk accessories, it blends decorative artistry with practical use, just as Hagenauer intended in his early sculptural designs. The bronze retains a rich original patina, and the marble shows gentle overall wear consistent with nearly 100 years of age, adding authenticity and character to the piece. A superb example of Austrian Art Deco design, this Hagenauer lady golfer vide poche is ideal for collectors of Hagenauer, Austrian modernism, 1920s bronzes, Art Deco accessories, and finely crafted sculptural functional objects. Its elegant silhouette, luxurious materials, and timeless Deco charm make it a standout addition to any interior or curated collection.

Fabulous 1920's Art Deco Anne Fish "Charleston Dancers" Doorstop #270 by Hubley

Fabulous 1920's Art Deco Anne Fish "Charleston Dancers" Doorstop #270 by Hubley

By Hubley Manufacturing Company 2

Located in Red Lion, PA

This exceptional 1920s Hubley cast iron doorstop, “Charleston Dancers,” No. 270, was designed by the celebrated British-born artist Anne Harriet Fish (later Anne Sefton) and captures the exuberant, lighthearted spirit of the Roaring Twenties. The sculptural doorstop depicts a dancing couple in close embrace, joyfully moving across the floor as they dance the Charleston late into the night, an iconic image of Jazz Age energy and modernity. Anne Harriet Fish was born in Bristol, England, and trained as a painter working in both oils and watercolors. After relocating to New York City, she became a prominent illustrator for Vanity Fair and Vogue, including the celebrated April 1917 Vanity Fair cover. During World War I, German-made porcelain doll heads became unavailable in the United States, prompting Fulper Pottery of Flemington, New Jersey, originally founded in 1909 as a stoneware pottery, to establish a new line of porcelain doll heads. When the postwar market for these products collapsed, Fulper pivoted to producing ceramic novelties, hiring Anne Fish in the early 1920s to contribute her distinctive, expressive designs. Fish’s success in ceramic design led to her collaboration with Hubley Manufacturing Company, for whom she designed seven iconic cast iron doorstops, now among the most desirable in the field of American folk and decorative arts: No. 269 – The Tiger No. 249 – The Messenger Boy No. 268 – The Parlor Maid No. 250 – Bathing Girls No. 270 – Charleston Dancers No. 222 – Small Footmen No. 248 – Large Footmen Anne Fish’s Hubley doorstops are characteristically numbered on the back and bear a copyright mark, with her name “FISH” painted on the front base, often in black. Likely influenced by her background in ceramics, her designs were finished with a distinctive high-gloss surface, a feature that has worn away on many surviving examples. This example is in beautiful antique condition, having been gently cleaned with minor professional paint restoration. It retains excellent surface presence and sculptural detail, with a richness and charm that exemplify Fish’s playful yet sophisticated approach to design. A highly collectible example of Hubley cast iron, Anne Fish doorstops...
