PHILIP HEARSEY (BRITISH, B.1946) 'WATERLINES' CONSOLE TABLE; 2007 Ash top, bronze and resin centre, steel legs Artist's monogram in bronze inlayed into back edge 83.5cm high, 87.5cm wide, 40.5cm deep Philip Hearsey makes exceptional and unusual furniture. The work is crafted from reclaimed trees that have died, fallen or been pushed by the wind around his home on the Welsh borders of Herefordshire. He never kills a tree, but rather creates a new life for an otherwise dead one. Forged metal is combined with the wood to give an everlasting quality to the functional object and strength to the form. It is invariably the wood that determines the work. Holding and touching the raw materials and working each piece into being creates an individual character and strong presence, resulting in work that bears evidence of the maker's hand and in sharp contrast to the smooth look characteristic of mass-produced or highly finished furniture. The work is essentially contemporary but uses old materials and traditional skills in a way that brings a modern dimension to ancient crafts.

Around 1955 Tofanari gave Aldo Marinelli, owner of the Marinalli Foundry in Florence, a number of plaster models to cast into bronze. This particular gazelle was amongst them. The agreement was that Tofanari would detail the waxes and oversee the patination. Tofanari died in 1969 but the foundry still cast with the family permission until 1976 when the foundry was sold and the name of the foundry changed. This cast is before 1976, it is signed on the tail as opposed to the raised leg of the later casts, it also has a quality and finish with fine detail. The modern casts of this subject are marked clearly as posthumous after legal action by the heirs. Condition Report: Some wear and unevenness to the patina of the bronze, there is an area of one shoulder that has discoloured, signs of handlingSignatures clear to the rear of the animal,Standing solidly and firmly to the marble base all joints secure at time of report, it is advisable to not lift by the bronze but a secure 'two-man' lift from the marble base No significant damage detected to the marble plinth Please see additional images for visual reference to condition and appearance Condition Report Disclaimer
