About the Item

One of a kind!!! These are so fun, I can’t stand it! A pair of early 20th century French Whimsical Monumental Balloon Wall Hangings. The balloons look like lolly pops! I acquired these from a collector who used to own a lot of French restaurants and they came out of one of the restaurants, which they were custom made for. I have a gigantic circus scene coming soon too! Yes, these would look amazing in a kids room but I would not leave that as your only option. They can add a whimsical feel to other rooms as well.
