18th Century Italian Hand-Carved Angel Wing on Honey Calcite Crystal

About the Item

18th century Italian hand-carved and painted angel wing with baroque pearls and mounted on honey calcite crystal. The hand-carved angel wing was once part of a heavenly, angelic depiction in a historical church in Italy. The ecclesiastical artifact is adorned with natural-forming baroque pearls. 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 Italian angel wing has been joined together with the honey calcite crystal to create a new sculptural work of old and new, creating a piece that appears to have evolved together over time. Interpreting the past to create a piece entirely original, evolving in its own right. Through the preservation of the ecclesiastical artifact, it carries historical prominence and significance while being transformed into a contemporary work of art.
