Also 19th century seems accurate in terms of facial shape based on the second picture posted by GaleriaGila, compared to the first (16th century) lion posted by GaleriaGila.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is all great stuff! So does it seem like they are likely from France? It seems the similar ones are from the Baroque Revival period, implying French, but I also know very little about this stuff hence why I am asking you guys.</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: Just found these which are the most similar ones I have found although mine are smaller, in worse condition and breccia marble rather than carrera. 19th century france was definitely a break through though!</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/building-garden/statues/pair-of-19th-century-french-carrera-marble-lion-statues/id-f_4649293/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/building-garden/statues/pair-of-19th-century-french-carrera-marble-lion-statues/id-f_4649293/" rel="nofollow">https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/building-garden/statues/pair-of-19th-century-french-carrera-marble-lion-statues/id-f_4649293/</a></p><p><img src="https://a.1stdibscdn.com/archivesE/upload/1121189/f_46492931463489303307/4649293_z.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
