Rare Medieval Bronze Belt Buckle – Praying Man – 14th Century – Brunet Collection
Rare Medieval Bronze Belt Buckle – Praying Man – 14th Century – Brunet Collection.
This exceptional and rare medieval bronze belt buckle, a French work from the 14th century, testifies to the remarkable skill of medieval goldsmiths.
This piece is distinguished by its exquisitely detailed representation: a seated male figure, his hands clasped in prayer, rendered with exceptional precision and attention to detail. The hairstyle, characteristic of 14th-century French fashion, is delicately executed, illustrating the craftsman's technical and artistic mastery.
The quality of execution is remarkable: the volumes are harmonious, the features are clear and legible despite the object's small size, revealing true virtuosity in bronze work. Every detail testifies to meticulous care and an artistic sensibility typical of late medieval goldsmithing.
Due to its rare type and the quality of its figurative decoration, this buckle is a piece of great historical and aesthetic interest.
It is preserved in very fine condition, with a superb, deep, and lustrous dark brown patina that highlights the relief and the delicate modeling.
This buckle comes from the former Angers collection of Dr. Alex Brunet, a renowned collector of early period objects known for the exacting standards and quality of his selections. The item has been appraised by the Laurence Fligny firm.
Dimensions: 2.5 cm x 3 cm.
Price excludes shipping.
