1750s Pair of Lacquered Wood Sculptures of Angel Heads with Wings

About the Item

Important pair of 18th century lacquered wood angel heads, from Northern Italy. The angel heads with wings are carved from a single piece of wood and decorated in polychrome with mecca gold wings. The sculptures are excellently executed, the faces are beautiful, where the various shades of the complexion can still be distinguished, the red lips and the dark part of the hair. The objects are in excellent condition, there are no defects or breakages, just a few signs. of aging which is normal for such ancient objects, I recommend looking carefully at the photographs which are very detailed.
