3 Spanish Religious Devotional Pieces,c1890

19th century
For Sale by Curious Antiques
Description

Collection of 3 Spanish religious devotional pieces, c 1890. These are fine quality 19th century examples. The icon has a decorative brass frame with hand painted enamel inset depicting a religious scene. The quality of the painting and the composition is good. The crucifixes are not quite a pair with small differences .They are well cast in brass/bronze with lovely detail. The cross is flanked by cherubs .Overall condition is good with minor surface wear/rubbing to the crosses. I think the icon would have had a stand at some point and this is missing (see photos). All 3 items have taken on a great colour/patina that only comes from age and use. Please refer to the detailed photographs and feel free to contact me with any questions or if you would like to view the item.

Size: Icon: 12cm tall x 7.5cm wide x 0.5 cm deep; Cross 1: 14.5cm tall x 6cm wide x 0.5cm deep; Cross 2: 14cm tall x 5.5cm wide x 0.5cm deep. I will happily ship worldwide.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

This collection comprises three late nineteenth-century Spanish devotional items, consisting of two cast brass Caravaca double-barred crosses and a central miniature shrine measuring 12 cm high, 7.5 cm wide and 0.5 cm deep. The pieces exhibit a brass gold colour with a natural aged patina and minor surface rubbing from handling. The items display intricate details including winged angels flanking the crucifixes, hand-engraved patterns on the frame, and a hand-painted enamel inset behind glass depicting a religious scene within hinged doors. The hardware includes a suspension loop at the top of each cross. These pieces suit placement on a sideboard top in a traditional or eclectic interior. They bring historical character to a display cabinet or mantlepiece as decorative accent objects.

FAQs

Originating in Caravaca de la Cruz, Spain, the double-barred Caravaca cross became a widespread symbol of protection and faith throughout the Iberian Peninsula and Spanish colonies from the Renaissance through the nineteenth century.

These items were predominantly cast in brass, bronze, or silver, often featuring hand-engraved surface decorations, hinged doors, and miniature painted portraits or printed religious imagery behind protective glass.

Authentic period pieces exhibit characteristic double crossbars, stylized angel figures supporting the base, hand-chased geometric engraving, and natural oxidation within recessed areas of the metalwork.

Small devotional objects can be mounted inside custom shadow-box frames, displayed on dark wood bookshelves, or arranged alongside curio collections on a sideboard to create a focal point.

Dust metal surface areas with a soft dry cloth and avoid harsh chemical polishes that strip historical patina or damage delicate glass-covered miniatures and vintage hinges.
