18th Century Italian Fragment with Pyrite and a Baroque Pearl on a Lucite Base

About the Item

Sculptural 18th century Italian fragment base with coordinating pyrite and a baroque pearl on a lucite base. The fragment was originally part of a hand-carved piece in a historical Italian church in Italy. It is paired with pyrite, adorned with a baroque pearl, and mounted on a lucite base. 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 artifact, pyrite, baroque pearl, and lucite are put together in a sculptural form - creating an organic and historically significant work of art.
