Description from the seller

Pair of bronze putti – decorative sculptures, late 19th / early 20th century

Elegant pair of sculptures depicting putti (cherubs) in bronze, crafted with good plasticity and a notable sense of movement. The figures are shown in dynamic and playful poses, one with a decorative cartouche/tray element, the other in a dancing or interactive stance, creating a harmonious and scenographic whole.

Main features:
• Material: bronze
• Technique: casting
• Period: late 19th – early 20th century
• Style: neoclassical/decorative taste
• Subject: putti (cherubs)
• Number of pieces: 2 (pair)
• Base: integrated, with naturalistic and decorative motifs

Conditions:
Good overall condition, with patina coherent with age. Signs of time, oxidation, and small surface irregularities present, attesting to authenticity and antique character. No structural fractures detected.

Aesthetic description:
The figures feature soft, well-modeled faces, finely worked curly hair, and proportionate anatomies. The poses convey lightness and dynamism, typical of decorative production between the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The patina ranges from brown to greenish oxidation, with warm and deep hues.

Use:
Ideal as decorative elements for classical interiors, studies, libraries, or elegant environments. Also suitable for collectors of antique bronzes or decorative art objects.

Notes:
Sold as a pair. Original antique items, not modern reproductions.
