Description from the seller

Table sculptures or ornaments.
Two sculptures in the shape of shells in solid wood, highly carved with exquisite workmanship from the 1940s-1950s.
Being very solid, they can be used by placing one in front of the other at the necessary distance, with a crystal on top; they can also be stabilized since there are small balls and a hole to keep them steady, creating a distinctive smoking table for a living room. Alternatively, they can be used as decorative elements.
The finish is natural wood with beautiful gold tones.
They are usually associated with Hollywood Regency style or with nautical/seaside furnishings.
They feature a shell shape of the Nautilus or Clam type, with detailed raised patterns on the outer surface and a smooth, concave interior.
Measurements: 46 x 30 x h 43 cm; weight 8 kg.
