(SOLD)
Here's one of the most beautiful and rare carved religious French meerschaum reliquaries I've seen in a long time and now listed at Metal Corset II.
This carved meerschaum reliquary highlights a veiled Mary kneeling in prayer holding a Flaming Heart wrapped in a crown of roses.
It is very rare to find a Flaming Heart held in the hand versus a Flaming Heart on the chest.
Absolutely exquisite period piece behind convex glass. The brass frame is engraved in a paisley floral scroll design and is further accentuated by twisted brass.
Such a beautiful treasure that celebrates our rightful Herstory and Heritage.
