Modernist Gilded Metal Angel Sculpture

This is a stylized, modernist-inspired decorative sculpture of an angel holding a horn. The piece is constructed from welded or soldered metal wire and sheet metal components. It features a brilliant gold-colored finish, likely a spray-applied metallic paint or a heavy gold leafing, which exhibits a textured, somewhat granular 'glitter' or sand-like surface in several areas. The design is abstract and geometric, using curved triangular metal planes for the robes and wings, while the head and trumpet are formed from bent wire armatures. Physically, the item appears to be approximately 12 to 15 inches in height, standing on an open wirework base that provides stability. Characteristically, the sculpture lacks facial features or fine anatomical detail, focusing instead on silhouette and movement. The condition shows some minor surface wear and possible slight oxidation or loss of the gilding at the joints and edges, which is typical for decorative seasonal or home decor metalwork. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures in the photograph. This style suggests a manufacturing period from the late 20th century to the present, often sold as holiday decor or contemporary religious art. The craftsmanship is commercial rather than fine art, as evidenced by the visible solder points and the application of the gold finish.
