Elegant period frame in carved and gilded wood, embellished with rich decorations featuring scrolls, shells, and floral motifs, typical of the Baroque style.
The wavy, asymmetrical shape, combined with the meticulously crafted relief, gives the piece an extraordinary visual impact.
At the bottom is a holy water font carved in the shape of a vase with a shell, also finely decorated, indicating the piece's original purpose for religious or devotional use, likely as a wall decoration in a private chapel or a nobleman's home.
The original gilding displays a pleasant antique patina with slight wear, testifying to its authenticity and age.
