Giuseppe Armani and Capodimonte Style, Collection of Cherub and Ballerina Figurines
Description
A collection of seven decorative figurines, primarily featuring cherubic figures in the classical tradition. The lot includes a prominent figure in the style of Giuseppe Armani for Florence Sculture d’Arte, depicting a winged cherub holding a colourful flower garland on a circular gilt-highlighted base. Also included are five further winged putti, several of which are designed with functional or decorative elements such as shell-shaped bowls and an ornate crown-like centrepiece. The collection is completed by a figurine of a seated ballerina wearing a pale green tutu. The pieces are crafted from bisque porcelain or a similar matte-finished ceramic material, featuring delicate hand-painted details in a soft pastel palette. No factory marks are visible to the exterior, though the style is characteristic of 20th-century Italian decorative makers. Height ranging from 7.5 cm to 15 cm.
Condition report:
The collection appears to be in good overall condition with no obvious large chips, missing limbs, or visible repairs. Due to the intricate nature of the porcelain, there may be minor losses to delicate areas such as flower petals, wing tips, or fingers.
