Description from the seller
Let yourself be captivated by this extraordinary antique devotional set, born to unite the infinite grace of Italian Sacred Art with the warmth of fine wood craftsmanship.
- On one side, an ancient reliquary pyx with relief and embossing. The body and the lid are decorated with festoons of roses and leaves; the lid is crowned by a bead-work cross. Complete with a finely worked under-dish plate with a central rosette.
Dimensions: 14 x 12 cm
- To complete this corner of contemplation there is the majestic wall rosary "Lux Mundi," a masterpiece of artisanal cabinetmaking. Each wooden bead has been turned and hand-polished to highlight its natural grain, culminating in the large crucifix and the carved heart at the center. Together, frame and rosary are not merely religious objects, but a true sacred decorative composition of rare elegance, ideal for embellishing a characterful wall, a bedroom, or a classical living room.
Rosary "Lux Mundi": Solid wood, turned and hand-polished, with crucifix and heart element
Dimensions of Rosary: Length approximately 107 cm
Seller's Story
Welcome to our Catawiki store. Our journey in online sales began back in 2004, driven by a clear vision: creating online auctions dedicated to high-value objects.
Today, more than twenty years later, we carry forward that exact same vision. We are proud to have remained a small, family-run business, yet operating with the solidity and scale of major industry professionals: each year, we welcome more than 100 new clients, purchase over 150 lots, and select between 3,000 and 5,000 unique items to offer you.
Our commitment is reflected in everything we do, from the initial find to the final delivery to your doorstep:
• A Purchase with Social Value: Buying from us means securing a great deal while actively supporting the future of young Italian students. We collaborate closely with 3 graphic design and advertising schools in Milan, Bergamo, and Lecco.
We invest our time and expertise to teach these students the secrets of online sales, professional photography, and marketing. By choosing us, you are tangibly contributing to their education and career paths.
• Field Research and Discovery: For years, we have been personally scouting the most remote locations across Lombardy to find unique pieces, rarities, oddities, and mid-century modern design.
• We Invest Our Own Capital: We do not sell on consignment. We invest our own capital upfront to purchase and restore every single item, taking on all the risks ourselves.
• Direct Dealings with No Intermediaries: We manage every single price personally.
This allows us to eliminate third-party costs and ensure you get the best possible profit margin as a buyer or collector.
• Meticulous Restoration and Quality Control: We get our hands dirty. Every item is carefully restored and verified with an obsessive eye for detail before going up for auction.
• Secure and Eco-Friendly Shipping: To prevent inflated shipping costs and ensure indestructible packaging, my wife and I head out almost every evening, often at unusual hours, to collect heavy-duty industrial cardboard from businesses in our neighborhood.
We hand-select only pre-evaluated, ultra-resistant materials to offer you maximum protection at the lowest possible cost.
Choosing our lots means relying on the historic expertise of a family that has lived this passion since 2004, while investing in the next generation. Our schools and students thank you deeply for your trust.
Happy bidding!
