THIS IS A VERY RARE TIFFANY & CO STERLING SILVER FIGURAL CHERUB SOLDIER AND MORTAR CIGAR STAND MADE BETWEEN 1870-1874. THIS PIECE IS OBVIOUSLY MILITARY INSPIRED WITH THE HELMETED CHERUB SOLDIER STANDING WITH FLINTS IN HIS HANDS BETWEEN TWO CIVIL WAR ERA MORTARS. THE FEET ARE FOUR HORSE SHOES WITH LAUREL BRANCHES. THERE IS ALSO A LETTERED MONOGRAM AS WELL AS THE WORD \"PHILOPENA\" ENGRAVED ON THE TOP OF THE BASE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A REFERENCE TO THE PHILIPPINES, BUT I AM NOT SURE WHAT WAS GOING ON THERE IN THE 1870-74 PERIOD WHEN THIS PIECE WAS MANUFACTURED. THIS PIECE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH A FANTASTIC PATINA. IT MEASURES 7 1/2\" TALL X 9\" WIDE X 6 3/4\" DEEP AND WEIGHS 22.4 TROY OUNCES.
