Animal sculpture TUSCA 'Parakeet' bird bronze Art Nouveau, Austria ca 1910

Sculpture of a bird (parakeet) in bronze in the spirit and period of art nouveau. Very realistic and of good quality, in the style of 'bronze of vienna', piece signed tusca + monogram k in a circle (see image) around 1910, original patina in perfect condition. This is a smoker's kit, matchbox holder and desk ashtray. We found on the web, from this artist tusca, a similar sculpture model but with a bulldog dog.
