They're both cast iron from the 1800s, they're in very good shape 4 what they've been used for. At some point in time, someone cut off the back where the wood would sit on and turn them into just standing statues. The woman has the most damage, she is missing part of her foot and has a crack in the midline center.
The crack does not go through the arms so it's a still a very solid structure and it can be repaired. These are very rare pieces because I've never seen them before my life. On the female's neck it looks like there is a possible weld where it may have broke off in previous centuries. Even though these things will be around for a couple hundred more years.
