Lot 383
An Art Deco spelter table lighter in the form of an airman with propeller 9", raised on a rectangular oak base (heavily f) £20-30

As catalogued, this lot is heavily damaged. It has obviously beed dropped and this has broken the propellor out of the airmans hand. The top of the propeelor has broken off and it now rest just by jamming against the screw which originally held it in place which goes through the figures hand. One side of the hinge is also broken off (and missing) to the head which flips back to reveal the lighter. There is also a large crack which runs around the body.
