A striking mirrored pair of vintage brass cherub appliqués, richly cast with winged figures and sweeping Rococo-inspired scrollwork. Their sculptural form and beautifully aged gold surface give them the character of old European decorative metalwork.
Each piece features a classical winged cherub emerging from elaborate scrolling foliage, with detailed feathers, expressive facial features and deeply modeled ornament. The opposing left and right designs create a balanced composition when displayed together.
Flat-backed construction and small pre-drilled attachment holes indicate that the pieces were designed as decorative mounts or appliqués. Their mirrored configuration makes them particularly suited to flanking a mirror, framed artwork or decorative panel, while also offering possibilities for furniture restoration or other creative interiors.
Sourced in Spain, the pair has developed natural patina, oxidation and surface variation that accentuate the sculptural details and aged character.
Sold as a pair.
