Top Quality Hand Carved Antique Oak Saint or Holy Man Sculpture W Missing Hands
Located in Lisse, NL
Late 1800s, hand-carved oak sculpture of a Saint or clergyman.
Sometimes we find antique sculptures / works of religious art of such good quality that we simply need to purchase it, even if we don't know who they are. There are many people in the world who know much more about all the Saints than we do and they will probably immediately recognize the beautiful and calm facial features of this holyman. If you look at the empathetic expression on this finest carved Saint's face and you see the quality of the details then you too will realize why this can only be the work of a master carver/sculptor. And it is not just his face, because the natural and perfect body posture combined with the exceptional proportions of this antique sculpture could not be more realistic either. With all of these things taken into account we are certain that you will agree that this finest workmanship Saint sculpture is another one of our 'antiques with a soul'. Because of the missing hands, we have priced it so favourably that this stunning and sizable antique can be owned by people with a lower budget as well.

18th C, Southern France, Madonna and Child, Carved and Polychrome Wood
Located in Leuven , BE
Although the 18th century, the period of the Enlightenment in France, spawned thinkers who criticised the privileges of the clergy and the truthfulness of certain dogmas, the Roman Catholic faith was very much present in everyday life. Since king Louis XIV had issued the Edict of Fontainebleau in 1685, Protestantism was banned. This Madonna with child illustrates the daily practice of faith. Like many 18th-century Madonna statues...

Antique Icon like Gilt Bronze Mary and Child Jesus Plaque over a Holy Water Font
Located in Lisse, NL
Meaningful and perfectly hand-crafted antique church relic.
This religious work of art dates from the earliest years of the 20th century and you could not wish for a better condition antique. This finest of holy water font plaques could not be in better condition, but that is also because it was all handcrafted out of the best materials only. Even the hand sawn, square nuts on the back are gilt. And the cross-like hook with the French Gothic fleur-de-lis ends with the ring on top (for easy mounting this gem to your wall) is another detail that shows us that no expense was spared when this antique was hand-crafted all those years ago. Whenever we find religious antiques of this quality and excellent condition, they usually were made for and used in either a church or a monastery (also, because that is where the budget was for the best quality pieces). The quality and the finish of this church relic really is among the best we have ever seen, but the quality of and the details in the sereen Mother Mary...

Pair of Tall Eagle Lecterns, Bronze, Etc, 16th Century and Later
Located in Madrid, ES
Pair of easels in the shape of an eagle. Bronze, iron. 16th-17th century.

Pair of lecterns with tripod-shaped bases, claw-shaped legs with spheres, and a triangular part from which three baluster-shaped legs emerge, with elements in light tones that join at the top of this piece , leaving a vegetal form towards the lower area. The finials are two eagles on spheres, each looking to the side with its head tilted upwards, and situated with its wings half spread; the back is smooth, without the details of the feathers, eyes, beak and claws that do show in the front. The eagles could be from the Spanish school or from the Netherlands, dating from the 16th-17th centuries, while the bases are from the 20th century. It seems that, at least in Spain, the spread of tall lecterns...

Rare Six-Light Gothic Revival Chandelier with Bronzed Knight & Swords & Crests
Located in Lisse, NL
Highly decorative, wrought iron, cast iron & oak Medieval Style chandelier.
With 20th century lighting as one of our specialities, we have seen a lot of great and unique fixtures, but never before did we come across an antique handcrafted Mediëval Style 'knight with large swords' chandelier. With his hands on his sword & shield and wearing a full body armour this knight is always on guard, protecting you and your loved ones. Have you also noticed the six larger swords that make the stylized torches on which the 'faux' candles are placed? Together with the two crests (with the Gothic castle towers) on either side, this beautiful and heavy quality workmanship chandelier has got the Gothic style written all over it. Handcrafted with forged and cast iron elements this largely bronzed, Gothic chandelier truly is a joy to own and to look at. If you have a room, a man cave or an entire house in the Gothic Style then finding a place for this rare, six light chandelier cannot be too difficult, because it will look marvelous everywhere. Thanks to the strong brass hook inside the original and height adjustable canopy, mounting this large chandelier tight to your ceiling will take no more than a couple of minutes. This Gothic knight...

Antique Bronze Box with Gothic Church Window Panels by Adolph Frankau&Co, London
Located in Lisse, NL
Rare size, solid bronze, Victorian Gothic box with multiple church window-like panels.
Over the years we have sold a number of rare and unique boxes, but never a Gothic Revival one of this length and looking like a medieval antiquity. Let us start of by saying that this antique box truly looks much better in real life than in our photos. There are as many as 28 Gothic church-like panels depicting biblical scenes all around. They are not the most detailed, but we feel this was done in an attempt to make this antique box look truly time-worn and medieval. Anyone who knows what it took (in terms of time and skills) to create this box will be just as enthousiastic as we were when we first saw it. It would have taken the artisan(s) working for Adolph Frankau of London quite a few hours (if not days) to first design this luxurious box piece on paper. The Gothic cathedral windows would then have to be hand carved out of wood or handmade using clay or another material. Then molds would have to be made from those sculptural plaques after which they would have been cast in bronze. The castings would have to be polished and the panels would have to somehow be welded together. Then any sharp edges would have to be grinded down and all the pieces of this box would also have been patinated and the lid hinged. When you look at this box with that in mind then you will see it in a whole new perspective. Have you also noticed the beautiful Gothic leaf pattern on the lock plate? This fully marked antique box comes with a working lock and key, but we will not try to close it, because one never knows if it will open again. If it won't then you have to damage this beautiful antique to be able to open it again. This rare and long antique box actually is a copy of what special Gothic boxes would look like in the 14th, 15th and 16th century. Back in those (Medieval) days these long Gothic boxes were made for safe-keeping and transporting parchment rolls and/or ordinances. In all our years we have never seen an antique copy...

19th Century Carved Oak Study of St. Paul the Apostle, English, circa 1860
Located in Central England, GB
This remarkable and very finely carved study of the biblical figure of St Paul, The Apostle who was originally Saul of Tarsus born BCE. Tarsus in Cilicia (now in Turkey). He died circa 62 – 64 CE in Rome, Italy. He was one of the leaders of the first generation Christians and was often considered to be the most important person after Jesus in the history of Christianity. This highly accomplished wood carving is a difficult material for detailing English oak. It shows him standing barefoot and dressed in simple robes with a sword in one hand and a scroll in the other. His face has been well captured with a good expression, detailed hair and a long beard. The small scale of this figure would indicate it was not originally church decoration...
