Carved ivory seal featuring Judith holding... - Lot 93 - Pescheteau-Badin
Carved ivory seal featuring Judith holding a head.
19th century
Length : 9.5 cm
Weight : 22g
(Missing tip)
The handle of this seal featuring Judith is made from the ivory of today's Proboscideans, more specifically Elephantidae. In fact, the parameters for recognizing Elephantidae ivory are clearly visible in the form of the guilloche patterns typical of this family. Chasing, sculpting and polishing have been carried out to modify the original appearance of the raw ivory material. A beautiful antique patina characterizes this ivory.
