Small 17th Century Carved Oak Statue from France

About the Item

This small French statue from the 1600s depicts a person in a two- piece robe with the bottom right hand portion of the robe attached above the knee. He is standing on a small carved pedestal with carved escutcheon motifs surrounding a date of 1520. The artist has depicted the draping of the robes beautifully. There are also two indentations open to each other on its back where wings may have once been. This beautiful statue recently came from a private collection in France.

  • Wonderful 17th Century Oak Statue of Saint Florian, Patron Saint of Firefighters
    Located in Dallas, TX

  • Pair of French 17th Century Angel Candle Holders in Carved Elmwood
    Located in Dallas, TX
    Standing at over two feet tall, this 17th century pair of angel candlesticks has been carved out of a beautiful French elm wood. Because elm wood typically has an interlocked grain, it can be quite difficult to carve or split. These candlesticks were produced by a master craftsman in France during the 1600s. Our angels have long, wavy hair that extends past their shoulders. They are wearing long flowing gowns with scalloped collars and half sleeves. The loosely draped robe reaches their ankles, exposing bare feet that stand upon a round base. One leg is also visible from behind the material due to a slit at mid-thigh. Each angel is holding a turned candle holder that has a large wrought iron pricket with a lobed bobeche. In France, this type of candle holder is known as an Ange Céroféraire. A ceroferary is the acolyte...
