AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Spectacular and dynamic pair of figurative sculptures depicting two fighting roosters in a ritual challenge stance (fighting roosters).
The two figures are modeled in complementary attack and defense poses: one with its head bowed downward and the other with its neck erect and feathers fanned. The workmanship is distinguished by meticulous anatomical detail, with exceptional rendering of the plumage feathers, wings, crests, and legs.
Made in solid metal with a rich silvered and aged patinated finish, these sculptures represent a classic elegant decorative element, ideal for studies, salons, or antique gift collections.
