About the Item

This is a charming 19th century French terracotta sculpture depicting two playful putti in a spirited pose, likely representing allegorical or pastoral themes common to the period. The figures are rendered with lively detail—curled hair, garlands of flowers, and expressive movement—typical of the Rococo Revival influence seen in decorative French arts of the mid-to-late 1800s. The piece is finished in a darkened patina, possibly once gilt or painted and now showing signs of age with surface wear and small losses that lend to its antique character. It is mounted on a turned wooden base with visible age cracks, further emphasizing its authenticity and age.
