A charming pair of bronze effect fairy figures mounted upon polished black marble socles, executed in an elegant Art Nouveau inspired style.

Each fairy is portrayed in flowing draped garments with delicate wings and naturalistic floral detailing, one carrying a vessel and the other holding garlands of flowers.

The figures feature contrasting gilt highlights against darker patinated bronze tones, giving the pair a wonderfully decorative antique aesthetic.

Raised upon substantial circular black marble bases with stepped detailing, these pieces display beautifully as mantle ornaments, bookcase sculptures, or whimsical collectors’ cabinet pieces.

Likely dating to the late 20th century in the style of earlier French and Viennese Art Nouveau bronzes, they capture the romantic fascination with mythological and nature-inspired subjects so popular during the period.

An attractive decorative pair ideal for interiors with Art Nouveau, Gothic, fairycore, or eclectic styling.
