These are truly wonderful centerpiece - “Illusions of Grandeur”.
Made from original plaster maquettes of beautifully sculpted angelic Santos heads from an antique dealer in Paris. They were probably used as church sculptures. Molds were made from the original sculptures and then cast in plaster. Lightly painted and dipped them in tinted beeswax, which gives them a soft patina. Each one seems to glow with a soft light. Each is mounted on one of a kind bases, and adorned with antique tinsel, french wax wedding garlands, and bleached natural fern leaves. Each one is unique and comes with a glass dome (packed carefully).
Approx. 17” Tall
