Candleholder cherub - Wood, Gold - 38 cm

Ancient and rare hand-carved wooden altar candle holder, painted and with finishes clad in gold leaf. Refined eighteenth-century artisanal craftsmanship of great quality and Italian elegance. In the center, a wonderful cherub carved with arms raised. Three-legged base, decorated with blue faux-marble lacquer and gold leaf trim. Some normal signs of age visible in the photos. Very charming and in good condition.
