AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pair of elegant reproductions of temple façades, dating from the 20th century, that imitate a classical portico with a triangular upper pediment, a frieze decorated with gilded metal ornaments and decorative spheres at the corners. The structure is supported by two black twisted columns (tortili) that recall Baroque style and the Grand Tour tradition. The base and the upper part are made of marble in warm tones (beige/brown veining).

Seller's Story

I am an antiques dealer who has closed his shops (3) with a large remainder of pieces including paintings, porcelain, sculptures, furniture, etc. I am dispersing all these works at prices very often lower than my purchase prices. They are all guaranteed and original works of great quality and value. Furthermore, through my thirty years of contacts, I continue to buy and offer extraordinary works at unbeatable prices, but only online. robertoloriaantiques
