Pair of Early Nordic Cross Country Skis, Museum Piece

About the Item

Pair of Early Scandinavian cross country skis. A pair of early long slender Swedish ridge top cross country ski's with tapered tips and wedge tails, the running surfaces with a single groove on the bottom. The original bindings were most probably mortise and strap bindings but have later been altered to the bent metal bindings we see in the pictures. The foot plates are rubber with a brass metal makers plate fixed behind one of them. The plate reads "HEDBERG & Co., SKIDFABRIK, NORR - EDSBYN" (HEDBERG & Co., Ski Factory, North Edsbyn). A great pair of skis, ideal as a decorative wall hanging piece. Museum piece.

Museum Quality Bronze of Christ Wall Plaque Sculpture "Jesus Carrying the Cross"
Located in Lisse, NL
Stunningly powerful and meaningful work of religious art. With works of religious art being one of our specialties, over the decades we have sold quite a few special antiques in this field. With this bronze antique the artist clearly shows us a fragment out of one of the most famous scenes that took place in the history of mankind. Christ has already been beaten, mocked, given a wreath of thorns and having to carry the enormous cross. As you can see the quality of the details and the workmanship is excellent, but the scene and its meaning ofcourse is even more impressive. Please notice how particularly the facial features reveil the peaceful state of being that lies underneath the exterior of this Christ sculpture...
