Object Description

A fine pair of antique French porcelain cherub sculptures attributed to E. Quinter.

Likely created in the Société Céramique de Charenton workshop, near Paris, these two groups of three playful cherubs are finished in a stunning white glaze.

There is a sense of movement to this perfectly sized pair, still with a fine quality finish after 140 years. You can just imagine them displayed as decorative chimney pieces or taking pride of place on a sideboard in a reception room or hallway.

Additional information

The overall dimensions are for one sculpture. The weight is for both.

Object Condition

Good structural condition. One appears undamaged. The second sculpture on the right has a missing finger and toes. Unsigned.
