Important Pair Of Girdles With Eagles 18th Century
Important pair of imperial eagle ceremonial sheaths in carved wood, finely polychromed and enhanced with gilding, resting on an elegant pyramidal structure adorned with rich scrolls and marble-effect reserves.
Each element is topped by a majestic eagle with outstretched wings, resting on a sphere, a symbol of power and authority, in the decorative tradition of the Second Empire.
The sculpture work, the quality of the polychromy and the balance of proportions give this ensemble an exceptional architectural presence.
These sheaths fit perfectly into a classical, eclectic or cabinet of curiosities decor.
