Antique Hand Carved Large Size Statue of Saint Joseph and Child Jesus Sculpture
Located in Lisse, NL
Large and high quality carved antique sculpture of Joseph holding the child Jesus.
If you are looking for a great value for money, work of religious art then this quality carved church relic could be gracing your home or monastery or house of prayer soon. This may not have been carved out of the most expensive or hard woodtype, but that is not what this antique is about. This striking and meaningful sculpture is all about the natural manner in which both the little boy Jesus and Saint Joseph have been hand-carved out of wood and how an accomplished sculptor clearly has spent a whole lot of time, focus and dedication to get the details of this large and meaningful sculpture very right. In this case, the hands and feet, the curly hair, the serene facial expressions, the perfectly natural body postures AND the perfect draping of the cloths are the most eye-catching details. Ones that most mortals would never be able to create like this and it will have taken this skilled artisan weeks rather than days to create.
We believe that this unique antique is made of basswood or pine and it has been hand patinated (original). This was probably done to make the entire sculpure look more warm and calm (no wood grains taking away anything from the beautiful details we described). This meaningful and quality crafted work of religious art is ready for you to enjoy and, to us, it breathes a holy serenity and beauty that will never fail to impress. No matter where you decide to have it on display, this ecclesiastical antique will never fail to impress and if you already have a place in mind for 'them' then maybe you should be their next custodian.
Mind you, our price for this hand carved antique church statue...

Large Antique European Carved Giltwood Church Altar Figure
Located in Forney, TX
A magnificent Baroque period monumental carved polychromed gilt wood church altar figure - religious folk art sculpture, depicting Christ, The Good Shepherd.
Exquisitely hand-crafted in Continental Europe around the 18th century, judging by the quality of work this most impressive example was likely commissioned by an important Roman Catholic church as a main altarpiece / altar figure.
The rare one-of-a-kind ecclesiastical work, circa 1750, hand carved from a single large log, with exceptionally fine detailing throughout, gessoed, polychrome decorated, and richly gilded, modeled as standing Jesus figure with sculpted draped garbs, carrying a superbly textured lamb over His shoulders, partial hollowed open verso, rising on plinth base.
Dimensions: (approx)
44" High, 20" Wide, 11" Deep
Condition:
A truly remarkable museum quality example.
Overall excellent original antique condition, with beautifully aged warm rich dark patina and minimal wear.

All handcrafted, hexagonal Gothic light lantern.
If you are a collector of rare and ancient looking Gothic antiques then this good size and possibly one of a kind pendant could be flying your way soon. With antique light fixtures as one of our specialties, we know how rare Gothic lanterns are and we are certain this fine specimen will find its way to a good home too. Also, because this all hand-crafted, Gothic Revival pendant completely original and in very good condition. The natural wear has only made this rare fixture more beautiful and its authentic, Medieval look and feel will never fail to impress. It may have originally hung in the entrance of a home in France or maybe above the main entrance of a medieval style chateau or castle, we are not sure. What we are quite certain of is that it is highly unlikely that we or you will ever find another one like it. The stylized Gothic rosettes above and below the Gothic church window-like panels in all six sides are just some of the wonderful features that make this work of lighting art so authentic and desirable. This light even comes with the original, antique cathedral glass...
