Vintage White Bronze Daydreaming Angel in a Wreath of Roses
Product Details
The Vintage White Bronze Daydreaming Angel in a Wreath of Roses catches a winged child off duty. He props both elbows before him, rests his chin on one hand, and gazes up and away out of the frame, his hair curling loose. A garland of roses and leaves runs the whole way around the quatrefoil border, and the relief is deep enough to hold real shadow in the curls and the plump forearms.
Angels in devotional art are almost always at work, announcing, guarding, adoring. This one is thinking, and the unguarded pose is what gives the plaque its charm. Roses have long belonged to the imagery of heaven and of Our Lady, so the wreath sets the daydream in a garden that is not quite of this world. The cool white bronze finish keeps the modelling crisp and suits a nursery, a bedside, or a christening gift.
This ornament was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves its vintage character.
- Made in the USA
- Artisan-cast from an antique original
- Finished by hand, so every piece is subtly unique.
- Buy the medal alone, or add an optional chain or cord necklace
- Add a cord or chain to have it arrive assembled and ready to wear
- Arrives in a deluxe velour jewelry box
