<p>[QUOTE="mikesolo66, post: 1487616, member: 32392"]My father and his six brothers and sisters had received this from my great-grandfather. My great-grandfather, Edouard Muller, had received it after stepping down as CEO of Nestle. (Even though his wiki page <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Édouard_Muller_(Nestlé)" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Édouard_Muller_(Nestlé)" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Édouard_Muller_(Nestlé)</a> states he was CEO until his 'sudden passing' which is not at all correct) Anyhow, they recently sold this piece to the MET for seven figures. Luckily, I had the honor of seeing that statue on many occasions as it's previous home was my grandparent's foyer.
