Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

This Virgin is in good overall condition for an 18th-century earthenware piece. We note some firing defects on the child's head, with a visible crack on the back, and typical signs of wear.
The Virgin in Childbirth is a statuette commonly found in homes from the 18th to 19th centuries. On the Virgin's head, there is a hollowed-out crown with a two-centimeter diameter hole at the bottom. Through this hole, holy water could be poured into the statuette, but more importantly, a candle could be placed, which was lit when the woman's "labor" began.
Our photos allow you to appreciate the quality of the object.
For condition, please examine the photos carefully.
