About this piece

back to top

A large decorative antique fragmentary stone statue of an angel torso circa 1800, mounted on a later 19th century mahogany plinth. Reminiscent of an ancient roman statue, this is a fragment from history – should it be able to talk, one could only wonder at what unique story it would tell!

Once part of a larger limestone statue, this fragment has survived the test of time with details of the angel’s handcarved torso, wings and arm still intact after more than 225 years. A superb decorative sculptural piece for a display plinth or column where it’s timeworn beauty can be observed up close.
