AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Title: Pair of silvered fighting cocks / table sculptures – Marked 'F' & 'Made in Italy' – Italy – Second half of the 20th century
Description:
A complete and expressive pair of silvered Italian fighting cocks (galli da combattimento), designed as classic table or cabinet sculptures. The duo forms a dynamic combat scene: one rooster stands battle-ready and tall with wings spread and raised foot, while the opponent crouches low in a defensive attacking posture. Both sculptures are highly detailed, modeled with richly worked plumage and fine open feather structures in the tail areas.

Period: Second half of the 20th century (ca. 1960–1980)
Material: Silvered metal

Standing rooster: ca. 14.5 cm (height) x 11 cm (length) x 9 cm (depth/span)
