Add a touch of timeless French elegance to your home with this beautiful vintage gilt brass cherub (putto) figurine. Sourced directly from France, this classical miniature sculpture features a charming infant musician resting a violin against his shoulder.
The figure stands gracefully upon an ornate, heavily detailed Rococo-style scrollwork pedestal base, reflecting the opulent design trends of the French Louis XV revival period. Crafted from high-quality cast brass with a rich gold-toned finish, this piece features an authentic, deep aged patina and dark oxidation in the recessed areas, highlighting its intricate textures and historical character.
Perfect as a standalone accent piece for a fireplace mantel, bookshelf, vanity, or as part of a Hollywood Regency-style vignette. Beautiful vintage condition with an authentic, untouched aged patina. The extended right hand originally held a small bow, which is no longer present, consistent with age and typical for these delicate miniature castings. The statue is 6.40" tall, and the base is 2.6" in diameter.
