Two Carrara white marble pedestal sculptures representing putti holding cornucopias, surmounted by a pair of "Reaper and Fisherman" cornucopia vases in crystal and silvered and gilded bronze.
Marble putti, draped in veils, raise a cornucopia, an emblem of wealth and fertility, shaped like a triton shell, ending in a tray on which crystal vases are placed.
The pair of trumpet-shaped vases, made of clear crystal and gilt and silver-plated metal, depicts a farmer and a fisherman. The farmer holds a scythe and a gourd, symbols of harvest work. The fisherman, for his part, carries a fishing net and fish on his shoulder. Both lift a vase, one decorated with ears of wheat and the other with reeds.
The harmonious set is also offered separately, a pair of marble side tables and a pair of crystal vases .
