[AUTOMATON]. Cambodian Apsara Dancer. France: Roullet & Decamps[?], ca. 1890s. One of possibly just two known examples of this automaton. Depicting a dancing female figure wearing a richly detailed traditional ensemble accented with beaded embellishments and gilt accents. Shoulders sway back and forth, arms move, and hands move up and down to create very fluid motions, capturing the grace and artistry of Southeast Asian performance. In working order. Coin slot present but functions with a key. Fabric wear and discoloration indicative of age, but overall, very good. Third-party shipping required. 41 x 28 x 16".
