Rather Brilliant 1998 Agelio A S Batle Co Graphite Hand hourglass shape At 13" inches across it

At 13" inches across it is not large

plus a few handy extras (lbs

but I think it's a great one

with a nice weight to it (just like a broom handle) and definitely a good amount of age

with one circle at the inch marks

Rather Brilliant 1998 Agelio A S Batle Co Graphite Hand hourglass shape At 13" inches across itPerhaps Ive come across one of these before in a museum gift shop and didnt really register it, but when I found this graphite hand this week in an antiques (and collectibles!) shop I thought it pretty brilliant! It was cast with a 1998 copyright mark and signature at the wrist, and a quick search revealed it as one of a series graphite sculptures by artist Agelio Batle. Maybe a bit kitschy (hes done a whole series of different hands, objects, etc.)
