About the Item

Note: This antique May qualify for our Gallery wide ~EXTRA~ 10-25% off sale, Going on now. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Arriflex 16ST was introduced in 1952 by Arriflex (Arnold and Richter) of Germany. It was one of the most popular cameras ever built for professional filmmaking. Offered for your approval, this example is a very early 16ST camera with a vintage 400' film magazine with the torque motor. Included is the very clean camera, a vintage early German cinema display lens, a clean factory bellows matte box with beam - sunshade, an original early 't' bar viewfinder eyepiece with original factory rubber eyecup, factory motor, and other accessories. The early Arri friction tripod head with wood Arri factory tripod is also included in this price. NOTE: the tripod shown is of lighter wood than the one included with this camera. The tripod head shown is also a different model than what is included. The tripod extends the overall height of this piece by approximately another 28 inches added to the stated height. Some minor paint touch ups have been done to the camera body over the years. A full cosmetic detail is included with this iconic camera package. Tripod shown is era correct but of lighter color tan the one included. Please ask for photos of the tripod and head that are slightly different than those shown here. Additional (non specified) lenses, accessories and power supplies are not included but available from our stock. An iconic example of a classic camera that mostly all vintage filmmakers have used at one time or another. ~Like artifacts of an ancient civilization - these rare legends of early Motion Picture and related production equipment technology - have a secure and appreciating place in history.~     About Our Firm:   We specialize in CERTIFIED Cinema Equipment Antiques and Artifacts Circa 1900 to 1969 and beyond, representing the Art Nouveau, Machine Age, Art Deco, Industrial Age and Mid Century Periods.    We have dedicated workshops, warehouses and galleries where we prepare, display and sell our rare Motion Picture equipment antiques.   Our cinema equipment antiques are perfect for display in residential, industrial and museum settings.

Large Antique Hand Carved Sandstone Sculpture, Bust of Christ with Display Stand

Located in Lisse, NL

Top quality and mint condition bust sculpture from the early 1900s with maker's name. This incredibly well carved bust of Jesus is impressive both for its quality and its large size. With His head bowed down like in His final hours on the cross this design is obviously perfect for displaying on a tall stand. In this case a tall and ebonized wooden pedestal was used and thanks to the contrasting colors of this bust and its pedestal they are like a match made in heaven. The master sculptor / artist could not have done a better job in hand carving the exhausted yet serene facial expression of Christ. The large size of this bust combined with the rare sandstone material makes this work of religious art look extra ancient. Because of its size this archetype of Christianity can also be seen and worshipped from further away. Unfortunately we cannot read the name of the skilled artisan who signed this unique sculpture. Thanks to its amazing quality, its excellent condition, its deeper meaning and its powerful presence this work of religious art will never fail to impress, no matter where you decide to have it on display. For it to have come our way felt like a blessing and to be able to offer it to the 1stdibs community in this amazing condition is an honour for us. Our fair price for this museum worthy sculpture again includes perfect packing and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days. Total height x width x depth: 74 x 17 x 16.5 inches. Christ bust...
