18th Century Italian Fragment with Mica in Matrix and Crystal Quartz Points

About the Item

Sculptural 18th century Italian fragment decorated with mica and crystal quartz points on a polished agate base. The 18th century fragment originally came from a candlestick in a historical church in Italy. The piece is put together by Jean O'Reilly Barlow, the artist and 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. The Italian church base artifact, mica in matrix, crystal quartz points, and polished agate base are put together in a sculptural form - creating a piece that appears to have evolved together over time.
