About the Item

A pair of French vintage terracotta lions. This pair of lions from France, standing approximately 2 feet in height, each feature abundantly flowing manes, an attentively snarling face, nicely carved feet, and good definition of the rib cages on their strong bodies.

This pair of vintage French terracotta lions can be used both indoors or out.
