About the Item

Crafted in France circa 1880, this charming pair of hand-carved marble eagles captures the majesty of these birds of prey in a compact and highly decorative form.

Despite their modest scale—measuring 8.5 inches high by 2.5 inches wide and 3 inches deep—they are rich in detail and presence.
