Pairs Of Carved And Gilded Wooden Angels - 17th Century

An elegant pair of finely carved wooden angel heads, dating from the 17th century. Each figure has a youthful face with soft, expressive features, framed by delicately sculpted, wavy hair. The necks are adorned with stylized ruffs and rest on a rich decoration of scrolls and foliate motifs. The entire piece is gilded with gold leaf, retaining a beautiful antique patina that testifies to its authenticity and history. The visible wear and slight alterations contribute to the charm of this sculpture and confirm its age. This decorative element most likely comes from an altarpiece, altar frame, or other piece of religious interior architecture. Its expressiveness and the quality of the carving illustrate the craftsmanship of 17th-century workshops. These are distinctive decorative pieces, ideal for enhancing a classic or contemporary interior. Dimensions: Height: 22 cm Width: 58 cm Depth: 15 cm.
