This pair of 19th-century finials features sculptural flame motifs cast in metal, likely zinc, known for its durability and weather resistance. Each flame form rises organically with curling ridges and a tapered peak, giving a sense of movement and classical ornamentation. The metal shows age-appropriate patina, with soft grays and oxidized tones lending authenticity and depth to the surface. Mounted on simple, square wooden plinths with a lightly distressed, painted finish, the bases add contrast and elevate the finials for display. Originally architectural elements—possibly from a gatepost, rooftop, or garden structure—these finials now serve as striking decorative accents with a timeless, sculptural presence.
