Antique Tile in Frame with Devout Singing Angelic Children Sculptures in Relief

About the Item

Antique and artistic wall tile with religious/spiritual look and feel. Another one of our recent rare (and possibly unique) finds is this antique wall tile in a wooden Baroque Revival frame. The base of this sculptural tile is made of terracotta and it comes with a beautiful creamy white, craquelé glazing. The plain white makes the young children look even more angelic. What we love about the children in this scene is that you can clearly see the devotion with which they are singing their song. They are singing with their heart and soul. The hand of the girl on the right held against her chest and close to her neck is another gesture of that devout state of being. We cannot look inside the sculptor's mind (also because we don't know the sculptor), but we feel that this tile was made with a deeper spiritual / religious meaning. Because of the high relief these singing children really come out of the tile what makes this piece extra impressive. This antique rarity also is in the best possible condition. It may look as if there is some wear on the hair, but that is just the terracotta coming through the white under the (perfectly intact) glazing. If you like this decorative and meaningful antique as much as we do then you will love our price. Especially when taken into account that perfect packing and worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days are complimentary. Maximum width x height x depth: 13 x 9.1 x 1.5 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by.

  • Antique Crucifix with A Unique Tree Trunk Style Wooden Cross & Corpus of Christ
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Unique and perfectly balanced crucifix with a marvelous cross and a detailed corpus of Jesus. This unique design crucifix comes with an incredibly detailed and top quality carved, circular, tree trunk-like cross. We have never seen such a cross before and it must have taken one highly skilled sculptor / artisan a very long time to create. The corpus of Christ too comes with beautiful details and it has the most amazing patina. We have sold some rare and good quality crucifixes over the years and this finely detailed corpus on this rare wooden cross is right up there with the most unique. Some crucifixes come with sculptures of Christ in terrible agony, but the serene face of this Christ reflects nothing but piece and calm. Both alive and deceased He was in a different realm and that is what the sculptor (in our view) has perfectly managed to capture. Have you also noticed the original and stylish INRI sign at the top? Furthermore, this antique crucifix...
