Virgin and Child + small vase. Gilded with fine gold

Superb antique porcelain set, consisting of a Virgin and Child and a small matching vase. The statuette of the Virgin is finely crafted in a naïve style typical of the late 19th century, with numerous highlights gilded with fine gold. The base of the Virgin is decorated with a stylized cross, reinforcing the devotional aspect of the object. The small vase, probably designed to hold a flower or a votive candle, uses the same decorative codes with stylized leaves and gilded details in relief. Harmonious set, ideal for a sacred decoration, a shelf in a cabinet of curiosities or a tastefully revisited prayer corner. Some wear to the gilding, perfectly normal for the age of these objects and which contributes to their authentic charm. Period: Late 19th century - early 20th century. Virgin and Child: 18 cm high Small vase: 8 cm high. #antiqueobject #virginandchild #antiqueporcelain #gilding #folkart #antiquereligious #authenticdecor #cabinetofcuriosities #vintagestyle #huntwithlove.
