Extremely old and extremely fragile, there are not many examples left to be found. In our decades of importing from Europe, this is only the second time we have had the pleasure to offer them. They are striking as garden ornamentation or unique wall decor.

We have several other examples (both small and large) now for sale on Chairish as well as numerous terracotta, wood, and iron architectural salvage pieces acquired from a well-known European antique dealer. Just search on Chairish for "Chez Vous Antiques" to see all these antique treasures.

As-found condition, very good considering age and use; old repairs, breaks, material loss as shown..

Free local pickup; otherwise shipped via economical UPS ground. See less
