Description

  • Silver
  • 74.3cm., 29 1/4 in. high
each body modelled as a male/female putti leaning against a tree base and supporting a large cornucopia, each supporting the detachable five-light branches modelled as floral sprays, all raised on a waisted rectangular pedestal base, embellished with four ornately foliate and husk shell feet

Condition

Clearly marked to each section: figures, bases, feet, branches and sconces. One sconce is loose to the foliage and needs a new thread. A couple of stems on the branches with small signs of solder but generally good for level of complexity.
