About the Item

Sculptural 18th century Italian fragment with chalcopyrite on a druzy crystal matrix with calcite crystals and gold-plate kyanite. This fragment was originally part of a candlestick from a church in Italy. It is distressed from time but still has the original mecca gold leaf on aspects of the piece which coordinates with the chalcopyrite crystals. The natural-forming chalcopyrite beautifully contrasts with the grey druzy crystal matrix. The fragment artifact has been preserved and transformed by Jean O'Reilly Barlow, the creative director of Interi. The date of manufacture reflects when she transformed the piece and the period shows that the Italian fragment is originally 18th century. Together, the elements create a contemporary, yet historically significant sculptural work of organic and old.

17th Century 'Florence Fragment' with Fossil Agate Coral, Crystals & Chalcedony
By Interi
Located in Dublin, Dalkey
17th Century Italian church vase decorated with fossil agate coral, red phantom quartz crystals, and chalcedony rosettes on polished agate base. This fragment is from a church in Florence. It was found and saved from the historic flooding of the Arno River in 1966. Fossil agate coral is mounted on top of the artifact. Fossil agate coral is Florida's state stone and is known for its unique formation that can take place over 20 million years. It's a natural gemstone that is created when prehistoric coral is gradually replaced with agate. It is adorned with coordinating red phantom crystals and chalcedony rosettes that resemble the color and texture of the piece. The piece has been naturally distressed from the flood. It has been preserved and transformed by Jean O'Reilly Barlow, the creative director of Interi. The date of manufacture reflects when she created the piece and the period shows that the Italian fragment is originally 17th century. The story and history of this piece and Interi's collection of Florence fragments...
