Todas las subastas / Muebles, diseño & espejos / Box - Ornamental reliefs with gargoyle - Bronze - Neo-Gothic reliquary
It is a small coffer that unfolds with absolute clarity the decorative neogothic of the 19th century, that taste for recreating medieval aesthetics with a blend of fantasy, artisanal precision, and a sense of staging. The structure, compact and raised on claw-footed legs, conveys from the first glance an almost architectural presence: it is not just a box, but a small domestic reliquary, an object designed to guard and, at the same time, to fascinate. The body is covered with ornamental reliefs worked with meticulous care: tracery, baroque flourishes, stylized vegetal motifs and small geometries that recall the friezes of Gothic temples reinterpreted by the historicist workshops of the 19th century. Each face of the coffer seems to tell a micro-visual story, with a decorative rhythm that plays between light and shadow thanks to the deep modeling of the metal. At the cusp, crowning the lid, a protective gargoyle rises, modeled with that elegant drama typical of neogothic style. Its presence makes the piece something more than a container: a symbolic guardian, a sculptural termination that adds verticality and a touch of medieval mystery. The conservation status is excellent: the antique patina enhances the metal’s nobility and the reliefs stay sharp. Only one of the hinges requires simple restoration, a minor detail that does not affect the integrity or aesthetics of the whole and that can be resolved without invasive intervention. In short, a 19th-century neogothic coffer of high quality, rich in detail, with a gargoyle acting as a visual signature and with all the narrative force of historicist objects. Shipped with tracking and careful packaging.
