Age? Can’t find another anywhere. Looks like gilded bronze, Italian style flower. Maybe was part of a theater decoration at some point.

    got it from NY thrift shop. Around 60$. Covered in dust

    How many do you have? Just one? Could be the mask of Comedy missing its pair Tragedy. Art Deco.

    I'd call them Hangs-around Looks-cutes. Probably 1950s decorative items.

    They are a nice size, I could see these coming from an old movie theater. They were mounted to something else, in a way not to be easily removed.

    Yes, given their weight and construction... I would think architectural salvage too.

    I would call these Hollywood Glam or Hollywood Regency - they should do very well if selling...
