AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Religious sculpture in 925 sterling silver by the renowned Spanish firm Alberty, Zaragoza, specialized in goldsmithing and sacred art during the second half of the 20th century.

The piece depicts the Virgin of Carmen holding the Infant Jesus with Carmelite scapulars, one of the most important symbols of Catholic tradition. The Infant Jesus is detachable, an uncommon sculptural detail of great collectible interest.

The work stands out for its elegant modernist design and for the quality of casting and handcrafted finish, characteristic of Spanish production in the 1970s–1980s. It preserves a beautiful original patina that enhances the relief and depth of the composition.

Stamped in 925 sterling silver and model number “207”.

Two small holes are observed at the top of the Virgin's head, probably originally intended for a crown or ornamental diadem currently absent, something common in certain devotional sculptures of the period.

Weight: 159 g.
Height: 11.5 cm.
Width: 4 cm.
Depth: 3.5 cm.

General condition good, with light signs of aging and use consistent with its age.

A very decorative and collectible piece, ideal for collectors of sacred art, Spanish silver and 20th-century religious sculpture.
