Terracotta wall shelf with a central neoclassical female mask, finely modeled faces surrounded by acanthus and floral motifs, dating to 1950–1960, measuring 24 x 21 x 16 cm, produced in Italy and in good used condition with signs of age and some stains.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This wall shelf in terracotta, characterized by a central female mascaron in a classical style. The face is finely modeled and framed by rich acanthus leaf decoration and floral motifs that terminate in a tapered point. It likely dates from the mid-20th century, produced in full Neoclassical style. The subject recalls the architectural decorations of the 18th century, but the sharpness of the details and the condition of the terracotta suggest an Italian artisanal manufacture of the twentieth century, probably from the Tuscan area.

Dimensions: 24 x 21 x 16 cm

Natural signs of aging and material flaws attributable to the period, but still in good condition.
Carefully observe the photographs as they are an integral part of the description. Tracked shipping, including secure packaging, and any customs duties and taxes will be the responsibility of the buyer.
Given the weight of the complete lot, it will probably be shipped on a pallet.
