A natural worn surface covers these objects, with worn painted detail and light surface chips and faded detail. They are solid in form and luckily stood the test of time considering their plaster material is fragile. The 2 section hearts fit together firmly and can be displayed so as shown. They are over 50 to 70 years old so please expect this to reflect in the items overall condition.
