"Crucifix / Christ Framed In Gilded Wood, Late 19th Century"
Framed Christ, known as bed base. Beautiful production from Dieppe, finely carved Christ. Frame gilded with gold leaf. France, late 19th century. Good general condition, I note a 2mm loss on the left thumb and small cracks in the gilded wooden frame. Frame height 27cm, width 24 cm. Dimensions of the Christ 12 cm X 9.5 cm. This ivory being more than a hundred years old, these are antiques which are not covered by the regulations. Our Christ complies with the requirements of the Washington Convention of 1947 concerning the ivory trade.
Sale only in France. No sale abroad. Customs controls, however, remain restrictive and too long for the buyer and the seller.
