1960s Uno Westerberg bull on wooden stand for Pukeberg

We've always liked the cast glass figurines of Uno Westerberg for under-rated Swedish firm, Pukeberg  This is a wonderful piece, the best of the Westerberg figurines that we've seen. However, we picked it up for an embarrassingly low price, so we can pass it on at a bargain price.

In 1935 the firm hired the architect, Westerberg (1914-85), to design lighting. From the 1950s he also designed tablewear and art glass. This 2kg bull, probably from the 1960s, was designed specifically for an advertising agency, according to the label. It is not one that we've seen before, and we suspect it was made only in limited numbers.
