About the Item

Elegant pair of silver cupids, intent on dancing while playing their respective musical instruments: one with the guitar and the other with the trumpet. The cupids stand on two ideal pedestals, characterized by an inverted Corinthian capital. The mastery in the creation of the sculptures and in the use of silver is evident, giving them a realistic and highly valuable appearance. These objects are able to enrich any environment with taste and class. Coming from the Neapolitan manufacture, they can probably be attributed to the Neapolitan sculptor Avolio, dating back to the second half of the 19th century. Measurements: H x W x D 15 x 5 x 5cm
