Item Description

A delightful lead figure of a winged cherub or Cupid holding aloft a clam shell on which a tiny bird is perched c.1890

Created as a fountain, but equally wonderful as a stand alone garden sculpture or a bird bath

This enchanting composition has a tiny fountain head in the centre of the shell, water will gently and softy twinkle in the sunlight when operating.

Imagine him placed as a piece to be discovered in the parterres of an English formal garden, or placed in your walled Mediterranean style garden, orangery or terrace. 

With historical repairs and a superb patina.

Stone plinth available separately at your request. 
Total Height including plinth 129cm.
