It is finely carved which imbues the figure with great dignity and grace. Note the beautiful face and gentle gestures. The statue is missing two fingers and one hand and would have been affixed to a base. I feel fairly certain this is an 18th century piece. 12.5" high. Priced as is.

They probably date to the early 19th century and possibly a bit earlier. They have impressive height (nearly 21"), and the most beautiful turned column. Each one is just slightly different, but close enough to be considered a pair. They have worm holes and nicks and bumps. The base at one time was drilled for lamps, but that has since been filled, and one candlestick has been repaired in a couple of ...click for details

It has hand carved details at the top, the column, and gorgeous detail on the big, square footed base. The candle stick stands 18.5" high and is about 7" at the base.

They are carved of wood, were gessoed and enameled over that. Very little of that remains, more gesso than enamel, but you can see small areas of skin toned paint on the tops of both feet. They are almost life sized, well formed and well carved, and a wonderful relic. They measure approximately 8" in length.

The figure has glass eyes, cast upward to heaven, caries a cross and is accompanied by a sheep. I love the way the base is shaped...it has a little extension to accommodate the sheep. It is carved wood and gesso, polychrome. The halo is made of tin. It is in superb condition. The statue measures 19" including the halo. Santo Isadore is the patron saint of farmers and the rural communities.

I am pretty sure it is at least 18th century, and possibly earlier. It definately has characteristics that are masculine, if will you notice the heavy brow ridge, and the straight nose, and the turn of the mouth. As you can see, there is a crack that runs down one side of the face, a piece of the other side of the face that has loss, losses to the nose, and parts of the ears are missing. (That so ...click for details
