Vintage French Bronze Cherub Sculptures - Heavy Matching Pair
A magnificent, heavy-cast matching pair of vintage French bronze cherub sculptures, beautifully designed to serve as both standalone fine art statues and functional taper candlesticks.
Each piece features a beautifully detailed, winged cherub (or putti) that looks as if it is joyfully dancing. They are holding up an elegant, stylized flower on a vine, which perfectly serves as a holder for a standard taper candle. Because they are exceptionally solid and heavy (weighing 4 lbs each), these unique pieces are highly versatile—perfect as statement art on a fireplace mantle, stunning standalone library sculptures, or upscale decorative accents for a classic interior.
