Featuring characteristic formal expressions, yet each one with its own warm personality, this pair is exquisite in its beauty, girth and condition. In lovely rarely seen great scale and elegant form with beautiful moulding to coat and tail, this pair of stately right and left facing figures is a superb period example that will bring a grand touch of English aesthetic to any setting in which it is placed. Timeless and versatile, this dramatic period statement piece may be arranged front and center on its own as a focal point on a mantlepiece or flanking fireside around the hearth. Pair alternatively atop a sidepiece or table to create a stunning focal point that will add depth and appeal to any room. Excellent period condition. Expected historic time softened patina. Superb.

Additional pieces are for display purposes. Height 15”
