An exceptional, matching pair of late 18th-century English heraldic engravings featuring the noble coats of arms for the houses of Belasyse and Berkeley. Sourced from a historic British peerage volume, these exquisite plates showcase meticulous line work and beautiful, classic hand-coloring. Both prints are presented in matching custom neoclassical giltwood frames, perfectly highlighting their stately character and historical charm.

Very good antique condition. The engravings exhibit light, age-appropriate toning that enhances their authenticity. A gentle wave runs across the bottom third of one print. The matting features a gorgeous, intentional craquelure finish that adds an extra layer of historic depth. Frames show minimal wear consistent with age.
