About the Item
An early 20th century antique French terracotta bust of Marie Antoinette, Queen Consort of France (1775-1792), on an associated white marble socle. This beautiful sculpture exudes elegance and femininity, Antoinette’s soft features captured in delicate detail.

If looking to add beauty and history to your home, this bust is the perfect piece, offering a glimpse into the lavish affluence of 18th century royalty in France. The terracotta is indistinctly signed to the reverse.
