Green serpentine marble cup with gilt bronze mounts – Late 19th century

Majestic decorative cup made of green serpentine marble, a perfect example of late 19th-century classical taste. Composed of two elements — base and hemispherical cup — it is embellished with a refined floral frieze in gilt bronze, which elegantly encircles the edge. Two winged figures in gilt bronze stand out on the sides, true masterpieces of casting, sculpted with grace and mastery: they are angels or caryatids with a collected expression and spread wings, emblems of neoclassical refinement. Dimensions: Overall height (with figures): 50 cm Height without figures: 28 cm Diameter: 30 cm Note: there is gluing in the base. Ideal work for demanding collectors, interior designers or gallery owners looking for unique and spectacular pieces. Shipments available throughout Europe and also in the rest of the world.
