18th Century Italian Angel Wing with Gold Kyanite on an Aragonite Crystal Base

About the Item

18th century Italian gold leaf angel wing with gold-plated kyanite on natural-forming aragonite. The angel wing originally came from a church in Liguria. It was once used as part of a decorative motif in angelic depictions in a historic Italian church. The gold-plated kyanite perfectly coordinates with the gold leaf of the artifact and looks as though it grew from the feather-like carvings of the wing. It is mounted onto the white aragonite which emulates a cloud. The piece is put together by Jean O'Reilly Barlow, the artist and creative director of Interi. The date of manufacture reflects when she created the piece and the period shows that the Italian angel wing is originally 18th century. The piece has been combined with the elements to create a historically significant yet contemporary work of old and new.
