18th-Century Brazilian Colonial Shrine & a Late 18th-Century Brazilian Table

About the Item

Early 18th-Century Brazilian Colonial Shrine with a Late 18th-Century Brazilian Colonial Table This exquisite Brazilian Colonial shrine, dating to the early 18th century, features an elegant arched interior framed by finely carved moldings. The doors, adorned with period iron hinges, open to reveal a sacred space that was likely used for devotional purposes. Adding to its grandeur is a 19th-century floral crest, intricately hand-carved with lotus and foliate motifs, enhancing its decorative appeal. Accompanying the shrine is a late 18th-century Brazilian Colonial table, a robust and functional piece with a single drawer and sturdy legs, exhibiting the patina and character of centuries of use. The aged surface, rich in history, adds to its authenticity and charm. Both pieces exemplify the craftsmanship and aesthetic sensibilities of Brazil's colonial era, making them ideal for collectors or those seeking a striking historical ensemble. - Dimensions of the table: 97cm W x 45cm D x 78cm H. - Dimensions of the shrine: 52cm W x 27cm D x 94cm H.
