About the Item
18th century Italian holy water font with two angels framed with polished agate coral wings on fossil coral.
The Italian holy water front is from a historical Italian church and is made from gesso and marble dust. It is framed with the fossil agate coral which is Florida's state stone and is known for its unique formation that can take place over 20 million years. It's a natural gemstone that is created when prehistoric coral is gradually replaced with agate.
The piece is put together by Jean O'Reilly Barlow, the artist and creative director of Interi. The fossil agate coral and Italian angels are put together in a sculptural form - creating a work of art to grace any wall or space.

Florence Fragment
Vase Mounted with Chalcedony Rosettes
By Interi
Located in Dublin, Dalkey
17th century Italian vase mounted and encrusted with chalcedony rosettes on a petrified wood base.
This fragment is from a church in Florence. It was found and saved from the historic Florence Flood of 1966. This was one of the worst floods recorded since the Renaissance and drew thousands of volunteers from all over the world to help save the city known for its precious history, artwork, artifacts, and rare books. The volunteers were called "the mud angels" because of the mud and silt left everything from the damage of the flood.
There is still the original paint and silt left on the piece to uphold the integrity, craftmanship, and history of sculptural fragment. The chalcedony rosettes perfectly emulate the color and texture of the piece.
The story and history of this piece and Interi's collection of Florence fragments...
