This pair of porcelain putti, created by the Doccia Porcelain Manufactory in Italy between 1740 and 1755, are a beautiful example of Rococo decorative art. The figures, with their delicate features and flowing drapery, embody the playful spirit of the Rococo era. Their wings, intertwined with ribbons, add to the sense of lightness and movement. These putti, originally designed as supports for a larger piece, are now considered works of art in their own right, showcasing the high quality and technical skill of the Doccia manufactory.
