An impressive and classical architectural element in cast bronze of a laurel and berry wreath topped by a bejeweled seven-point crown. The crown in particular shows impressive dimensionality. A soft verdigris patina from the natural weathering of bronze highlights the fine details of the casting, such as veining in the leaves and folds in the bands of ribbon. Very sculptural and high relief.
