Pair late Victorian Spelter figures | Warrior and Maiden Holbien Powder Blue Trim | TabPair late Victorian Spelter figures Warrior and Maiden c. 1890 Spelter is an alloy of lead and tin that ages to resemble bronze, but is softer and has a lower melting point. It is generally finished in a style to represent antique bronze which oxidises as it ages [which is what has happened, here]. Both figures have removeable "weapons" which makes it a little easier for shipping, but bear in mind these are very heavy items. Maiden approx 35cms (14")
