Dealer notes
Elegant and timeless, this pair of 19th century French bronze sphinx sculptures captures the mystery and allure of classical mythology. Each hand-cast sphinx is finely detailed with parcel-gilt highlights that enhance their sculptural form, symbolizing wisdom and guardianship in ancient lore. Set atop later beveled marble bases , these antique bronze sphinxes add grandeur and depth to mantels, shelves, or desks. Crafted circa 1880, they embody the opulence of French decorative arts and offer a commanding presence in any refined or neoclassical interior.
