About the Item

Black coral sea fan embellished with green tourmaline and a showy quartz druzy shell specimen mounted on a 19th-Century French bronze doré fragment. This is a lovely objet d'art to add to your collection or cabinet. During the Renaissance, Cabinets of Art and Curiosity were developed for the essential expressions of human ingenuity and virtuosity. Through the transformation of raw materials, such as nautilus shell, into masterful works of art, a dialogue between art and nature could be initiated. These objects seem to have no other purpose than to be admired. Usually quite small, they were meant to be picked up and inspected closely. Objects were studied deeply like books, sparking discussions between scholars, intellectuals, and Cabinet visitors. For more beautiful finds, visit our other 1STDIBS storefront Moxie Interiors!
