Description from the seller

Important and enormous pair of large-sized appliques in full gilt bronze of Italian craftsmanship from the late 19th century, approximately.
The appliques are spectacular, of notable quality, rich in vegetal and fruit decorations.
The decorations are attached to the main body of the appliques, and the screws and pins are original and antique.
All decorations are attached to the appliques.
Both are very, very heavy; they are costly and rare appliques on the market, and they were often commissioned in the past.
The electrical system was functioning.
The measurements are:
56 cm x 40 cm x 29 cm
Weight 6.5 KG
Significant oxidation is observed on the back, the screws are difficult to unscrew, and there is a high amount of copper in the ancient bronze.
Please observe all the photographs taken from various angles, as they are an integral part of the description.
