Antique Early 18th Century Ormolu Winged Putto Merman Desk Ornament

A charming early 18th-century ormolu desk ornament depicting a winged putto-merman, or putto-triton, with raised arms and a finely modelled bifurcated scrolling fish tail.

The ormolu figure is mounted upon a later rectangular faux-marble base measuring 13 × 8 cm.

The ormolu is dirty and would benefit from a good clean.
