About the Item

Pair, early 20th century French lion statues carved in limestone. Male lions with handsome mane are in sitting position. The aged patina including distress to finish, wear, old lichen/stains, pitting all reflect generations of sitting outside in the elements resulting in an authentic aged appeal.
