Description: Large Finely Carved Bacchus and Putti Meerschaum Pipe. 19th C. FranceGenuine work of art from the 19th century, depicting a smiling Bacchus and a crawling putti. Real amber stem. Without case.Usually Bacchus represents happiness. Putti represents love. Bacchus is depicted with a jovial face covered with bunches of grapes and vine foliage.Despite the Putti missing his right arm, this sculpture remains of great beauty and exceptional quality. I think it's more suitable for display. Length: 9.5 in or 24 cmHeight: 3-1/8 in or 8 cm Condition: The putti is missing part of the right arm, see precise pics. Damaged a long time ago. Professionally and lovingly repaired.Used with worn and tiny chips. The amber stem has bite marks and tight. I didn't try to remove it with force.Please ask all questions prior to buy.
