Rare Hand Carved Baroque Architectural Wall or Ceiling Cherubs Sculptures 9 Feet
About the Item
Antique architectural, painted nutwood 'molding' for wall or ceiling mounting, 9 feet in length.
If you are looking to integrate amazing architectural antiques into an old or new building then this extremely rare and all hand-carved Baroque decoration could be ideal. This striking antique depicts four angel-like cherubs relaxing in the clouds and they are an absolute joy to own and look at. Over the centuries they have been painted over a number of times (they would have also been painted or possibly gilded the first time) and those layers of paint have basically conserved the wood and they too have given this carved work of ancient art its unique look and feel. The pair of cherubs in the center could very well symbolize a married couple and maybe that is why these decorations were used in the first mansion they were part of. The cherubs on the left and right may then very well represent children, making this family of four complete. If you already have a place and a space in mind for this rare, stylish and meaningful antique then maybe you should be its next custodian.

- Antique, Rare & Decorative Pair of Hand Carved and Hand Painted Horse SculpturesLocated in Lisse, NLStunning and unique pair of matching horse sculptures. With a combined experience of almost 30 years in the antiques trade, we were thrilled to once again find beautifully hand-crafted and decorative antiques that we had never seen before. From the density and the weight we can see and feel that these highly decorative horse sculptures are made of a tropical hardwood. Like, for example, with antique mirror frames or church sculptures these horses too were first covered with a mixture of chalk and glue so that the paint would hold longer. And, as so often is the case with antiques, the colors that were used for painting these horses are so much more beautiful than anything you find in this day and age that they truly are an absolute joy to look at. From the colors, the wear, the materials and the techniques that were used to create these horses we can see that these are 19th century antiques. However and unfortunately we lack the knowledge to be able to tell you from which country these highly decorative and sizeable works of art originate. We just can't find matching style horse sculptures anywhere on the worldwide web. They could be Chinese or Nepalese, but they could also be Persian or Arabian. We just have not been able to find out. What we do know is that they are definitely antique, they are in beautiful condition (with some wear, consistent with their age), they are highly decorative, probably unique and they have a look and feel that will instantly change the atmosphere of the room they are in. Mind you, our sharp price for this wonderful pair of horse sculptures...Category

- Hand Carved Black Forest Bear Sculpture Hand or Vanity Mirror with Beveled EdgeLocated in Lisse, NLFiner quality carved, wooden Black Forest hand mirror, circa 1890-1910 If you are a collector of only the finer quality Black Forest bear antiques then this hand mirror could be the perfect addition to your collection. This antique bear is balancing on a wooden tree trunk and he is holding the beveled mirror for you. His right hand, at some point in time, has been 'reconstructed' and that probably was done at the same time when the excellent condition and beveled oval mirror was replaced. This rare antique has the most wonderful patina and with at least 100 years of age it is incredible to be in this condition still. The original glass eyes and the original red painted tongue and white teeth are the perfect finish to this skillfully carved and intricate bear mirror...Category
