Here is this lovely pair of bas relief medallions, made from red copper or coppered tin. Fine embossing, featuring a snuffer woman, so amazing with her impressive funny face, and a pipe smoker with his astonish hat. The two fine medallions are originally framed in a wooden rectangular frame, with an iron hanging ring. Subject is so interesting and patina is so wonderful; a rare little pair for tobacco lovers! Design of our two smokers has been inspirited by the famous Boilly drawings and prints serials. Dimension: Diameter is 5". Frame: 9" x 8" Condition: Is good, no hairline, no break, we mention a wooden crack in the smoker's frame and medallions' back have traces of wear, due to the old time..... Those two pieces are French, dating from Mid 1800's, authentic antiques that we guarantee
