These 2 beautifully carved statues are gracefully decorating a portion of my home, having been acquired from a lady who relocated out of state. I've enjoyed them for several years and it's now time for someone else to enjoy them. On the bottom of one is a label that reads, Valentino, Italy. Another label has a bar code. I've not been able to find more info. A kind reader did tell me that these are no longer sculpted and she presumes the factory is out of business. Top item is approx. 16" tall and the other is approx. 20" tall. The appearance makes them seem lightweight, but that's offset by their density.The camera doesn't show the superb detail...it's exquisite! All natural, carved from marble dust while others refer to them as reconstituted marble.
They needed to be cleaned when I purchased them, but I did not make any attempt, for fear of damage. To be fully appreciated, I would suggest a thorough, proper cleaning by the new owner.
If anyone can provide further information, that would be humbly appreciated.
If anyone would be interested in welcoming one or both into a new home, that also would be nice!
Packing and insurance will bear additional fees, but a local pickup in Ohio would preclude those.
Questions answered based upon available information. Reasonable offers considered.
Thank you!
