Pair of Ceramic Cherub or Putti Figurines
This item consists of a matching pair of decorative ceramic figurines depicting pensive cherubs or putti. Each figure is crafted in a seated, thoughtful pose; the figure on the left sits with legs straight forward, resting its chin on its hand, while the figure on the right is similarly posed with crossed legs and hands under its chin. Both figures feature a high-gloss, creamy-white or off-white glaze over a ceramic body, likely earthenware or porcelain. The modeling of the hair, wings, and facial features exhibits rounded, soft detailing characteristic of mid-20th-century decorative kitsch or religious giftware. Each piece measures approximately 5 to 7 inches in height. The style is reminiscent of Renaissance-inspired motifs often found in Italian or American ceramics from the 1960s or 1970s. Visible condition appears good with high reflectivity, though close inspection would be required to identify fine crazing, which is common in older glazed ceramics. There are no immediate signs of major chips or repairs visible in the provided image. The craftsmanship is commercial grade, intended for interior home decor or shelf display.
