true pair of French 19th century Louis XVI Bronze and Ormolu Cherub wall decor
About the Item
A most unique and charming true pair of French 19th century Belle Epoque Period Louis XVI st. Ormolu and patinated Bronze cherub wall decor. Each stunning wall mounted statue of a seated Putti playing musical instruments is set on an exceptionally chased foliate Ormolu wall bracket. The L-shaped brackets are centered by an "oeil de boeuf" at the bottom leading up to a chandelle and three dimensional pierced Ormolu foliate scrolls. Wonderful palmettes and inverted acorn finials lead up to a circular seat and centered by a large rosette. Upon the seats are the patinated Bronze Putti playing cymbals and a tambourine while wearing a simple loincloth and floral sash. The sash drapes over their shoulders below their floral crowns while displaying joyous facial expressions.

True Pair Of French 19th Century Louis XVI St. Ormolu And Bronze Andirons
By Henry Vian
Located in West Palm Beach, FL
An adorable true pair of French 19th century Louis XVI st. Ormolu and patinated Bronze andirons, after a model by Caffieri and signed H. Vian. Each high quality andiron is raised by four topie shaped legs decorated with draping acanthus leaves. The Ormolu support above is decorated with concave sides and a pierced interlocking wrapped around foliate band. Atop the support is the Ormolu dog bed with tassels on each corner and scrolled designs along the edge. Standing on the bed are charming patinated Bronze dogs, one with their paw lifted and both displaying wonderful expressions.
Henry Vian (1860-1905) was a celebrated bronzier who specialized in the production of bronzes in the eighteenth century style, particularly light fittings, cases with bronze mounts and chandeliers of great quality. He participated in the Great Exhibition of 1878, 1889 and 1900 and received a Gold Medal in 1889. His workshop was based at 5 rue de Thorigny in Paris. His wife and son ran the business after his death in 1905 until 1944, when the city of Paris took over the premises for the Ecole des Métiers d'Art.
