Patinated bronze vessel sculpture dating to the first half of the 20th century in antique style, attributed to Gustave-Joseph Cheret (after), with a height of 16.5 cm and a diameter of 13 cm.
Description from the seller
Container or vase, weighing about 7.5 kilograms, in patinated cast bronze, given the cylindrical shape and the upper opening, it is likely that the object was conceived as a vase, cache-pot (plant holder) or candlestick holder. The sculpture shows several putti (nude infant figures often associated with Cupid or angels in art) who play or embrace around what appears to be a hollow tree trunk or central pillar. The lot will be carefully packed and shipped with contracted carriers and with online tracking. For this lot, shipments outside the European Community are not made.
