B857 - SOLD

This is a divine antique French religious porcelain figure of  Notre Dame De Lourdes dating from about 1900.  It would originally have been bought as a souvenir of a pilgrimage to Lourdes. It is a very decorative piece and would make a stunning addition to a religious or vintage display.

Our Lady Of Lourdes has a beautiful serene face with a lovely blush to her cheeks.

Her attire drapes beautifully. She wears a rosary and a pale blue sash around her waist which looks superb against the antique white of her robe. At each of her feet is a lovely pale pink rose.

She is highlighted with gilding now faded with the passage of time. Along the base  is written in gilded script 'N D de Lourdes'.

She is in good condition with just one minute old chip at the front of the base.

She measures :- H 27.5 cm (10.75 inches) x W 7 cm (2.75 inches) x D 7.5 cm (3 inches).

A stunning and interesting piece to add an architectural feature to a display and another divine antique French find from La Belle Étoffe!
