Harás también dos querubines de oro, labrados á martillo los harás, en los dos cabos de la cubierta.

Rashbam on Exodus
כרובים. Birds. (shapes of) We base this on Ezekiel 28,14 את כרוב ממשח הסוכך, “as a cherub with protective outstretched wings.” (compare Rashi) It is a large bird. Our sages (Sukkah 5) understand the word to mean “having the faces of young children, toddlers.”
