FAQs

Cherubs and putti have featured in European sculpture since the Renaissance, gaining widespread popularity during the Baroque and Neoclassical periods, as well as during nineteenth-century Grand Tour collecting as decorative desktop items.

These figures were typically cast using lost-wax or sand-casting methods before undergoing hand-chasing to refine detail. A chemical patina was subsequently applied to achieve a uniform dark brown or patinated finish.

Authentic period bronzes generally exhibit natural surface wear along raised edges, detailed hand-chasing around features, solid weight from bronze alloy, and a natural patina rather than painted cold-cast finish.

Small bronzes function well styled on a mantelpiece, placed atop a stack of design books on a coffee table, or arranged alongside leather-bound volumes inside a glass bookcase.

Bronze figures require dusting with a dry microfibre cloth or soft brush. Chemical cleaners and liquid polish should be avoided to prevent stripping the patination, though microcrystalline wax can be applied for surface protection.
