Pair of brass nautilus cups, similar in style to works by Franz von Stuck (German, 1863-1928). Each molded in the form of a cherub standing atop a turtle holding aloft a large nautilus shell surmounted by a smaller putti or cherub riding a dolphin. Both with rocaille decoration and floral swags along the shell.
Height: 19 3/4 in x width: 9 in x depth: 5 in.
Condition: There is some areas of tarnishing throughout. Some dust gathered along the interior of the shell. Small felt tabs affixed to the undersides of the turtles’ feet. No major bends, breaks, or losses.
