English Plaster Lion Head Roundel on Stand

About the Item

An early 20th century English plaster lion head centred on a large plaster roundel decorated with a bead and reel border in high relief. Perhaps once used as part of a frieze embellishment on the interior of a prestigious building or an ornamentation for a roof boss, this striking lion head mask now makes a stunning English architectural display piece mounted on a bespoke steel stand. Its large scale and deep craftsmanship make an imposing presence in any setting, looking striking in a collectors cabinet or on its own on a pedestal. Plaque diameter: 59 cm (23.22 inches) Includes bespoke steel stand.
