Puckerings has dated this piece to the 1890s.

The underside of each is signed, I have had items in the past made by this English manufacturer but I am unable to recall the name, they are also impressed with the date 1896, very unusual.
Solid and heavy, a highly decorative pair to adorn your mantlepiece or perhaps the desk-top.
Excellent condition, with the base measuring 4" square and standing 7" tall.
Item ID: 32899
