AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
These two Italian mid-20th-century cornucopias, made in gilded brass, feature an exuberant design that revisits the Baroque tradition with a language of postwar European decorative taste. Their oval silhouette is framed by a profusion of scrolls, volutes, and stylized botanical motifs, crowned by an upper roccaille-inspired finial that adds height and theatricality to the whole.
Brass, embossed with pronounced relief and a warm gold finish, offers a soft sheen that accentuates the sense of accessible luxury so characteristic of Italian design of the era. Although conceived as ornamental frames, they also function as autonomous decorative objects, capable of bringing a touch of classical elegance to contemporary or eclectic interiors.
Certified shipping and good packaging.
