Description :
Pair of vintage cast‑metal figurines featuring two distinct artistic styles. The larger sculpture depicts an 18th‑century Rococo couple in period attire, standing approximately 7" tall on a decorative footed base with a marble inset. The gentleman’s staff appears to have a small missing tip. The metal shows a warm bronze‑tone patina; weight and coloration suggest bronze or a bronze‑finished spelter, a common mid‑century casting method. Spelter pieces often received a bronze wash to mimic true bronze, and worn areas may reveal a grayish tone beneath. The smaller companion figure is a 4" classical goddess rendered in dark metal and mounted on a solid wood block. Together, the pair offers a charming contrast between romantic Rococo styling and timeless classical form—ideal for decorative display or vintage art collections.
