About the Item

This is an extraordinary and rare bronze ornament that evokes the Gothic Revival style, a collector's piece distinguished by its bold design and artisanal quality. The ornament, depicting the head of a fantastic animal with large wings, was created through a bronze casting process, which gives it exceptional solidity and detail. The piece is notable for It's gilded and original antique patina, which has naturally formed over time, adding rich texture and a depth of color that underscores its history and authenticity. The intricate details of the animal's face, with its fierce and expressive features, as well as the elegant volutes of the wings, demonstrate outstanding craftsmanship. Due to its handmade nature, one of the wings is subtly more curved than the other, a detail that is not only imperceptible at first glance but also attests to the authenticity and unique character of the piece. This ornament is ideal for collectors of Gothic art objects, for those seeking unique decorative elements, or to add a touch of drama and character to any space. It is ready to be hung, making it easy to incorporate into your decor. • Style: Gothic Revival • Manufacture: Handmade bronze casting • Material: Bronze
