Stone Base Lyre

Very Good Condition – Minor Chips to Stone Base – Old Iron – Base is 20th C.

This lyre is constructed from old iron, and a relatively new cast stone base. Lyres are stringed musical instruments which were often used in classical antiquity and later. This impressive French iron musical lyre is mounted into a stone base, which has been decorated at its top center with a circle of rounded leaves and berries. It could be used on its own as a wonderful accessory, as a music sheet carrier, or a  bookholder inside or outside the home.

H=25, Base: 8 1/2 x 9 1/2
