FAQs

Cherub and putti figures originated in classical antiquity and experienced a significant resurgence during the Renaissance and Baroque eras, frequently crafted for ecclesiastical interiors, altarpieces, and domestic devotional settings.

These figures were carved from softwoods such as pine or linden, covered in a ground layer of gesso, and painted with polychrome pigments alongside applied silver or gold leaf finishes.

Authentic pieces display evidence of hand-carving tool marks, natural shrinkage along the wood grain, layered wear revealing underlying gesso or bole, and gradual oxidation on metallic leaf finishes.

Designers frequently position carved figures on mantelpieces, sideboards, or within open display shelving to introduce historical character and sculptural interest alongside contemporary furnishings.

Preserve carved timber by displaying it in a climate-controlled environment away from heat sources, dusting gently with a soft dry brush, and avoiding liquid cleaners or abrasive polishes that damage metallic leaf.
