Vintage 1950's Wedding Cake Topper Chalkware Bride Groom With Arch, Bell, Hearts

Description

You are viewing a wonderfully retro ornate wedding cake topper from the 1950's.  It features a hand painted plaster bride and groom in the center of a satin ribbon and mesh arch.  A celluloid white bell hangs above them.  The arch is embellished with silk lily of the valley and carnations.  The background has 2 ribbon and mesh hearts.  The base is completely covered with 3 rows of crimped ribbon.  It measures 12" high, not including the 4 prongs that go into the cake to hold it in place.
The topper is in very good condition, and all parts are accounted for, with no holes, rips, bad odors, etc.  The piece was likely white when it was new, but it has yellowed to more of a cream color.  The stamen in the flower centers are aged to a yellow-brown.  The bottom tier of the ribbon base is stained from coming in contact with the wedding cake. The hearts are formed around metal wires, and there is some light rust color on the back of one of the hearts.
