Description
The structure is a pair of lead garden figures located in the formal garden northeast of Vaynol Hall. These figures depict two putti playing with bunches of grapes. One putto sits on a fish and leans out drunkenly, while the other supports him by holding onto a branch with an acorn finial. It is noted that the leaning putto is missing one arm. The figures are mounted on an octagonal stone pedestal, which is set on a stone platform in the grassed upper bay of the garden.
