AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A pair of seated Oriental figures—possibly intended as bookends, ornaments

Cast in brass, hollow-cast and equipped with a silver-plated layer that creates a handsome, smooth surface.

Condition: fair. There is a crack in one of the legs, but both figures remain aesthetically strong and stable. Please pay close attention to this detail when bidding. It affects the value, and a skilled restorer may be able to repair this. The figurines retain a beautiful expression.

Dating: exact age unknown, probably the first half of the 20th century – let's say the Interbellum.

These figurines were common during that period in France and England as ornaments on clocks, bookends, and various interior pieces. Because of their restrained design, they could be considered very English. They have an appearance that evokes India or the Middle East.

586 grams per piece / 11 cm high

material: an alloy with brass and a silver-plated layer.

The marble shown in the photo is used to present them.
