Hand Carved Antique Alabaster, Happy & Serene Lady Bust / Sculpture By Fattorini

About the Item

Top quality and practical size sculpture of a beautiful and serene lady. If you are a collector of antique and top-quality works of art then this hand carved lady sculpture could be yours to own and enjoy soon. Over the decades we have owned and sold a number of great sculptures made of all kinds of materials and this stunning and happy looking lady certainly is up there with the prettiest. Perfectly serene and smiling undernearth her typical early twentieth century 'hatwear' she has a presence that will never fail to impress. This solid, two tone alabaster sculpture from circa 1910 was made by a highly talented sculptor by the name of Fattorini who was one of the greats from the last generation of Italian master sculptors. For anyone to be able to carve a perfect and serene face like this out of a rock of alabaster, to us, is like the work of a higher power. The perfect manner in which the hat sits on her head is incredibly realistic too. Only a true artisan and master carver is capable of creating such details, tenderness, grace and serenity out of a marble-like material. Thanks to its durability this alabaster sculpture can be enjoyed by you (and your loved ones) for the rest of your lives and by generations after you. She brings beauty, grace and an almost tangible kind of joy and peace, no matter where you decide to have her on display. Our fair price for this stunning and superb condition antique includes perfect packing (in a custom made box) and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days. Maximum height x width x depth: 8.5 x 7.7 x 4 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish, for artistic and for the best craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again).

  • Large Antique Hand Carved Sandstone Sculpture, Bust of Christ with Display Stand
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Top quality and mint condition bust sculpture from the early 1900s with maker's name. This incredibly well carved bust of Jesus is impressive both for its quality and its large size. With His head bowed down like in His final hours on the cross this design is obviously perfect for displaying on a tall stand. In this case a tall and ebonized wooden pedestal was used and thanks to the contrasting colors of this bust and its pedestal they are like a match made in heaven. The master sculptor / artist could not have done a better job in hand carving the exhausted yet serene facial expression of Christ. The large size of this bust combined with the rare sandstone material makes this work of religious art look extra ancient. Because of its size this archetype of Christianity can also be seen and worshipped from further away. Unfortunately we cannot read the name of the skilled artisan who signed this unique sculpture. Thanks to its amazing quality, its excellent condition, its deeper meaning and its powerful presence this work of religious art will never fail to impress, no matter where you decide to have it on display. For it to have come our way felt like a blessing and to be able to offer it to the 1stdibs community in this amazing condition is an honour for us. Our fair price for this museum worthy sculpture again includes perfect packing and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days.
