He is the spirit of gaiety, caught mid-flight, a whisper of the divine suspended on your wall.

This early 20th-century cherub, carved in wood and bathed in a rich, antique gold gilding, is an artifact of pure, joyful extravagance, a piece of the Baroque revival brought home.

He carries with him the drama and flourish of the past, yet his singular presence allows him to transcend any particular era. His face, sweet and innocent, conveys a timeless sense of mischievous grace.

Place him above a doorway to bless all who enter, or pair him with dark, minimalist walls for a dazzling contrast that highlights his intricate carving and sublime texture.

He is the Gilded Messenger, ready to elevate your space with a touch of celestial charm and undeniable, heirloom quality.
