About the Item
Antique Sacristy Door with Skull and Crossbones - Italy, 17th Century
Exceptional wooden vestry door, dating from the 17th century, from Italy. This unique piece was originally used to store holy oils inside a church sacristy.
Characterized by its arched shape and lived-in appearance, the door is embellished with a striking carved decoration depicting a skull and crossbones, a powerful memento mori symbol that recalls the impermanence of life and the sacredness of the stored contents.
The original patina of the wood lends additional charm and authenticity, while the wrought iron lock with its key testifies to the craftsmanship of the period. An object with a strong visual impact, perfect for collectors of sacred art, antiques and interior design with evocative taste.
