18th Century Italian Ecclesiastical Tabernacle with Aragonite

About the Item

18th Century Italian tabernacle with aragonite. It is hand-painted and carved with scroll details and has been kept in its original condition. The tabernacle was originally used in a historic Italian church as a "tronetto eucaristico" which means "eucharistic throne." It is paired with a piece of aragonite which coordinates with the burgundy, brownish/redish colors of the tabernacle. The piece is preserved in its original form and paired with the mineral to create a beautiful artistic work of historical ecclesiastical significance.

    By Interi
    Located in Dublin, Dalkey
    Pair of 18th century Italian hand-carved gold leaf angels with tangerine quartz crystals and mounted on aragonite.
