Description from the seller

This refined nineteenth-century temple-style monstrance is an important testament to sacred art, characterized by a silvered architectural framework and gilded brass. The piece rises on a circular, richly chased base with phytomorphic motifs, connected by a central-knob stem to the display cabinet, where four slender columns enclose the original lunette decorated with a seraph with wings outstretched. The object's beauty is enhanced by a double row of settings with multicolored stones in glass paste that ornament the frieze and the dome, the latter topped by a finely modeled, fully round statuette. The natural dark patina elegantly alternates with the gilded areas, giving the piece a visually authentic charm characteristic of the period.

Dimensions: H 43 cm × base 11 cm

Good overall preservation condition of the sculpture, taking its age into account. Material defects due to aging, visible in the photographs. Missing some stones, as shown in the photos.
Please carefully observe the photographs as they are an integral part of the description. Tracked shipping, including secure packaging, any customs duties, and taxes, will be at the buyer's expense.
