Antiques, Fine Art & Collectibles. Antique 18th C Religious Wooden Santos Statue Wood Carved Saint Figure Glass Eye. DESCRIPTION Antique 18th century Santos religious wooden miniature statue. The santos figure is motioning outward with his right hand whilst carrying a brass staff in his left hand. The main body of the religious statue is constructed from wood with gold leaf painted on his cassock, as well as the sleeves, cowl and bottom of his chasuble. He is missing his zucchetto as there is a place for it on the top of his head. His head and hands appear to be carved from a bovine material to a high sheen in great detail, especially his beard and hair. This was acquired from the collection of a renowned patron of Santos figurines. MEASUREMENTS Santos Figure measures 6.75 tall by 3.5 wide by 2 deep and weighs 4.6oz CONDITION In good condition with wear and tear to the polychrome paintwork commensurate with age (please see all pictures as they form part of the condition description). He is also missing one of his glass eyes. The staff is most likely a replacement. Yesteryear Essentials is a local, independent family run antiques store in Los Angeles, CA.
