More Information

These look to have been reconstructed to some extent in particular the bases look to have been adapted, however whatever marriage has occured is fairly successful, bronze and ormolu in good order, there is a join in the manufacturing process that shows at the base of the ormolu branches where the casting is a little crudely finished, stepped bases have red and grey marble over black slate, ormoly paw feet in good order.
