France, c. 1900–1930
A rare devotional wall bénitier featuring a crucifix mounted upon a hand cut blue textile cross, complete with an integrated holy water font below.
The piece combines humble materials with ornate Gothic inspired details, creating the feeling of a small village chapel carried into the home. The faded blue fabric has aged beautifully over time, softening the form and lending the object an unmistakably devotional character.
The silver toned corpus is framed by fleur de lys style ornamentation, while the font below was intended to hold holy water for blessing oneself upon entering or leaving a room.
Rich with wear, age, and evidence of long use, this is not a decorative reproduction but a genuine object of personal devotion.
A beautiful addition to a prayer corner, altar, or sacred wall.
Condition
Good antique condition with visible age related wear to the textile backing, oxidation to metal elements, and patina consistent with a devotional object more than a century old.
Important Notice
All sales are final, each piece is one-of-a-kind
