Stand - Gilt wood - Saint's niche - 33 cm

Baroque-style niche, made of carved and stuccoed wood with water-gilding, datable to the 19th century, conceived as an ornamental structure to house a devotional image. The piece features a vertical architectural design, with a semi-circular or segmental arch at the top, flanked by decorative elements such as scrolls, volutes, acanthus leaves, and relief moldings, all worked with abundance and dynamism.

The gold leaf, applied over stucco, preserves areas of wear that reveal the age and liturgical or domestic use of the niche. The interior is arranged as a deep niche, possibly with a painted or draped background, designed to highlight the central figure. The base and sides display sculptural details that reinforce the sacred and ornamental character of the ensemble.

This type of niche, typical of chapels, altars, or domestic devotions, reflects the Baroque taste for theatricality, brightness, and religious exaltation. Its condition, the quality of the gilding, and the decorative richness make it a valuable piece for collectors of sacred art, historical furniture, or period settings.
