Lot 314: A Cast Stone Garden Ornament of a Reclining Putto
This architectural wall ornament is produced from cast reconstituted stone, featuring the head of a winged cherub or putto set within scrolling acanthus foliage. The piece is designed in a Baroque revival style, functioning as a decorative corbel or bracket. The reverse is hollowed out to facilitate wall mounting. The material possesses a coarse, granular texture with a sandy-buff colouration. The front displays moulded details to the hair, facial features, and feathered wings. There are no visible maker’s marks, signatures, or foundry stamps. An auction lot tag from HCP Auctions South West identifying the item as Lot 315 is attached to the side.
