Antique French Napoleon III Era Carved Chalk Religious Plaque, Oval Black Frame & Convex Glass Antique English walnut the nap on the velvetFine antique French Napoleon III era carved chalk sculptural plaque, a wonderful religious icon with what appears to be Saint Anthony holding the baby Jesus and a cherub or putti at his side, all in deep bas relief and displayed in the original ebonized wood frame with deep bombe or convex glass! One of the items that we always try to have 'in stock' though it appears that this is the only one I have ready to list. This one is truly fine in detail and
