Pair of Early 18th Century Hand-Carved Wooden Cherub Heads - German Baroque Angel Figures from East Germany
Description:
This rare and expressive pair of hand-carved wooden cherub (putti) heads dates from the early 18th century, during the height of the German Baroque period. These figures originate from Eastern Germany and were likely once part of a richly decorated church altar or devotional sculpture.
Each head is crafted with care, showing the detailed facial features and stylized hair typical of Baroque religious art. One retains a carved scroll element (volute), suggesting its original placement in an architectural or liturgical setting.
The wood shows expected signs of age, including some historical woodworm activity (fully treated) and minor losses. These pieces offer an authentic glimpse into early 18th-century ecclesiastical craftsmanship and are ideal for collectors, interior stylists, or those with an eye for sacred heritage.
Details:
Origin: Eastern Germany
Period: Early 18th century - German Baroque
Material: Hand-carved wood (woodworm treated)
Height: approx. 20 cm
Condition: Antique, with wear consistent with age and use
Sold as a pair
A rare opportunity to acquire two original fragments of early 18th-century sacred art from the German Baroque tradition.
