This substantial piece features three sculpted cherub faces framed by dramatic acanthus leaves, each cast in relief and finished with hand-applied silver and gold accents that lend an aged, old-world patina. Surrounding the figures are vibrant mosaic bands composed of glass, foil-backed gold, and mixed mosaic/ceramic tiles arranged in a rich palette of plum, cream, and metallic tones.

The composition is inlaid within a beautifully preserved solid wood surround, giving the piece a sense of architectural weight and sophistication. The stunning craftsmanship is supported by double dovetail joinery at all four corners. Both ornamental and evocative, it brings together elements of Neoclassical Revival sculpture and Mediterranean decorative glamour; making it an extraordinary focal point for entryways, living spaces, or curated gallery walls.
