About the Item
This is a wonderful pair of terracotta busts, depicting a boy and a girl. 20th century, most probably Italian. Both raised on a circular base. Unsigned.
The bust of the young boy showcases a collared coat and that of the young girl a buttoned, collared dress, her hair raised up in a lovely chignon. Wonderful modelling to the faces and hair on each one.
Gentle patination to both, which adds to their appeal.
These look lovely in the garden, mounted on a fence or within a flower arrangement.
Tiny chip to the base of the girl. Otherwise in near perfect condition.
