AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant pair of liturgical or processional lanterns, made of silver-plated metal — probably silvered brass — with gilded upper caps, traditionally intended for use on altars, chapels or religious processions.
Each piece presents an architectural structure inspired by neo-Gothic, with textured crystal panels protected by a pierced cross on the front, a central symbolic element within Christian iconography. The lanterns have a hinged side door, allowing easy access to the interior for placing a candle or illumination.
The upper covers are topped with gold crosses, while the bases feature Baroque-inspired vegetal relief decoration, adding stability and aesthetic presence to the ensemble. This type of lanterns were part of liturgical furniture used in processions, Holy Week pasos, altars or sacramental exhibitions, and today they are highly valued both by collectors of sacred art and by lovers of religious decoration.
The approximate dimensions of each lantern are 33 cm in height x 11 cm x 11 cm, balanced proportions that make them suitable for both liturgical use and decorative display.
The pieces are in good overall condition consistent with their use, showing slight signs of the passage of time typical of liturgical objects.
