"Zodiac Box, " Lidded Art Deco Bronze Casket with Zodiac Symbols by Oscar Bach
About the Item
Beautifully cast and finished with a lovely, lustrous patina, this bronze lidded box depicts all 12 of the Zodiac symbols -- four on the lid and two on each of the four sides. The box was created by Oscar Bach, one of America's leading makers of furniture and decorative arts in the 1920s and 1930s. Bach, who immigrated to America from Germany, settled in New York City, and there he created a dizzying array of lamps, tables, candlesticks, decorative panels and other pieces that ornamented some of America's finest theaters, homes and public buildings, including Radio City Music Hall. This piece is signed on the underside.
