A lead figure of a winged cherub or Cupid, poised lightly as he lifts a scallop shell, a small bird resting at its edge.
Conceived as a fountain, the shell is centred with a discreet spout, designed for water to rise and fall in a gentle rhythm—catching the light and animating the surface of the lead.
There is a quiet poetry to the piece. Figures such as this belong to the long tradition of English garden ornament, where they are not placed to dominate, but to be discovered—half-hidden within planting, or glimpsed along a path as the garden reveals itself in stages.
The surface has softened over time to a pale, silvery patina, lending the figure a sense of ease within its setting.
With historical repairs. Shown raised on a stone plinth for display.
