AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pair of gilded bronze table supports with putti decoration – Louis XVI style – 19th century

Rare pair of decorative gilded bronze supports depicting four finely modeled putti (cherubs) in the Louis XVI taste.

Each set consists of two figures resting on an oval base. Reunited, the four putti join hands and form a particularly elegant and decorative composition. The characters each bear a support intended to receive an element now absent, probably a glass top, a table centerpiece, or an ornamental element.

French work from the late 19th century, made in solid gilded bronze. The quality of casting, the substantial weight, and the beautiful old patina attest to careful workmanship.

Specifications:
Material: solid gilded bronze
Style: Louis XVI / Neoclassical
Period: late 19th century
Origin: France
Number of elements: 2 supports forming a pair
Height: 27 cm
Width: 12 cm per element
Total weight of the pair: approximately 2.70 kg

Condition: Overall good condition. Wear, light signs of use and aging consistent with the object's age. No visible signature. The original upper elements are no longer present.

Very elegant decorative presence, ideal for an antique bronze collection, a classical interior, or as decorative elements on a console, a fireplace, or a bookcase.

Careful shipment with reinforced packaging and tracking.
