Description from the seller
Splendid and extensive collection lot of sacred and devotional art, ideal for collectors, enthusiasts of the genre, or flea-market vendors. The items date from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century, all in excellent condition or bearing the charm of their original patina.
The lot contains a total of over 100 pieces, divided as follows:
- WALL CRUCIFIXES: one made of wood and worked metal (Baroque style, early 20th century), with an INRI scroll and a skull symbol (Golgotha) at the base. The second crucifix is cast bronze/brass (folk style, 18th–19th century), with a distinctive fluttering scroll and its original patina.
- ROSARY NECKLACES: a vintage rosary with Aurora Borealis faceted glass beads that shimmer with changing colors, and gold-tone metal links. A contemporary rosary with a minimalist monochrome design, featuring white, translucent beads and a cross.
- GOLD-TONE COMMEMORATIVE MEDAL dedicated to Saint Charles Borromeo, with a finely crafted raised portrait of the saint.
- SERIES OF VINTAGE POSTCARDS dedicated to the Sanctuary of Lourdes, depicting the basilicas, the historic torchlight night processions, and the Grotto of Massabielle.
- EXTENSIVE COLLECTION OF HOLY CARDS AND SACRED IMAGES: dating from the late 19th century to the first half of the 20th century, including rare mourning memorial cards (R.I.P.), lithographs of Our Lady of Sorrows, and historic religious certificates (e.g., First Communion). Dozens of modern and vintage holy cards featuring images of the Sacred Heart, Mystical Rose, Saint Jerome Emiliani, and Blessed Luigi Tezza.
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!
