The front features abundant hydrangea blossoms surrounded by scrolling stems, delicate leaves, and softly curving botanical forms arranged across a warm chocolate brown ground, creating a balanced and visually captivating composition. The harmonious combination of cream, blush pink, raspberry, dusty rose, olive green, sage, beige, caramel, and golden brown produces a warm, inviting color palette that complements both classic and contemporary interiors. Every woven detail reflects the skilled craftsmanship of the original tapestry, while the professionally tailored linen backing and plush insert provide durability and comfort for everyday display. Rich in character, texture, and historical charm, this antique Aubusson pillow...

19th-Century Russian Orthodox Crucifixion Icon with Extensive Church Slavonic Inscriptions A deeply atmospheric and finely detailed 19th-century Russian Orthodox icon depicting the Crucifixion of Christ, executed in the traditional Byzantine manner with extensive Church Slavonic inscriptions and an unusually decorative turquoise and gilt border evocative of cloisonné enamelwork. The icon presents Christ crucified upon a dark wooden cross, flanked by the mourning figures of the Virgin Mary and Saint John the Theologian, all rendered with elongated proportions and solemn devotional expression characteristic of Russian icon painting of the period. The arched upper register bears the title “Распятие Господне” Translated: “The Crucifixion of the Lord.” The cross plaque is inscribed with “І.Н. Ц.І.” The Church Slavonic equivalent of INRI, translating to the following: “Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews.” Above Christ appears the sacred Christogram. “ІС ХС” Translated: “Jesus Christ.” Additional inscriptions include: “ЦРЬ СЛВЫ” Translated: “King of Glory.” and likely: “СЫН БОЖИЙ” Translated: “Son of God.” The Virgin is identified by the traditional Greek abbreviation "MR. ΘΥ.” Meaning: “Mother of God.” while Saint John is inscribed. “СТЫ ИОАНН БОГОСЛОВ” Translated: “Saint John the Theologian.” The richly ornamented border with geometric floral motifs provides exceptional decorative presence, uncommon among more austere provincial examples. The reverse retains an old typed collection or import label reading, “Russian Icon of the Crucifixion, 14 in. by 12 in., 19th Century," along with an apparent 1971 import or inventory date stamp, suggesting the work entered the United States through an early dealer, estate, or ecclesiastical collection. Presented on traditional joined wood panel construction with horizontal butons. Surface wear, craquelure, scattered paint losses, edge wear, and age-related abrasions are present throughout and should be viewed as consistent with the devotional use, age, and authenticity of the icon rather than defects. These surfaces contribute to the deeply timeworn spiritual character prized in antique Orthodox icons...

French Polychrome Terracotta Church Console, France, circa 1850. Salvaged from a historic chapel prior to its demolition, this exceptional architectural element is crafted from high-quality terracotta rather than plaster, making it a rare and highly durable example of 19th-century French ecclesiastical craftsmanship. Richly hand-painted in its original polychrome finish, the console features a medieval-inspired niche that recalls the artistic traditions of the pre-Renaissance period, bringing remarkable depth, color, and historical character to the piece. Originally created as a devotional wall console for displaying a religious sculpture or sacred object, this architectural fragment now offers outstanding decorative potential in both traditional and contemporary interiors. Whether installed in an entryway, library, living room, or curated collection of architectural antiques, it creates a striking focal point while preserving the authentic spirit of its original setting. The console remains in good original condition, with its vibrant historic paint largely intact. Minor losses and signs of age are consistent with its history and have been intentionally preserved rather than restored, allowing the piece to retain its genuine patina and undeniable authenticity. A specialized wall-mounting system may be required to ensure secure installation. Architectural fragments of this quality are increasingly sought after by collectors, interior designers, and enthusiasts of French Gothic Revival, religious art, and European architectural antiques...

Please note: We are available to directly assist with coordinating pickup and delivery by trusted professionals experienced in transporting historic and concert-grade pianos. This Erard parallel-strung grand piano, crafted in Paris in 1845 (serial number: 18725), has been extraordinarily well-tended, restored and maintained, enduring today as not only a spectacular example of the pinnacle of 19th Century piano design - characterized by its innovative construction and exceptional sonoral qualities - but also as a premium instrument by the most advanced modern standards, concert-ready for world-class, discriminating performers and their audiences. Erard was a renowned piano manufacturer established by Sébastien Erard, and for much of the 19th Century, the company produced some of the most exquisite and innovative European pianos of the era. The sound produced by this parallel-strung grand piano is characterized by a clarity and transparency that distinguishes it from its contemporaries. The parallel arrangement of strings contributes to a more direct transfer of sound energy, resulting in a balanced and articulate tone across the instrument's registers. This piano's tone is beloved for its sweetness in the treble range and a robust quality in the bass, while also allowing for an especially nuanced and expressive interpretation of the musical repertoire of its era. The ebony and ivory keyboard is a testament to the meticulous attention Erard paid to the tactile experience of playing. Each key is precision-weighted, providing a responsive touch that allows the pianist to articulate a wide range of dynamics and expressiveness. An interior faux tableau latches to the outer case lid in an open position for maximum concert volume, and rests in a lowered position to maintain a softer, more muted experience. The year 1845 places this Erard instrument in the heart of the Romantic era, a period marked by a surge in musical creativity and emotional expression. Composer/performers like Chopin and Liszt were drawn to Erard grand...
