    STATUE OF IMMACULATE VIRGIN MARY “CAP I POTA”

    840,00 €

    Statue of the Immaculate Virgin Mary, made in Spain in the 19th century.

    This beautiful statue of the Immaculate Virgin Mary is an exceptional work crafted by Catalan artists in the 19th century. The statue is wooden and polychromed. Such statues of saints were primarily made for processions, and since naturalism has been highly desirable for religious images since the Baroque period, they were made for the purpose of dressing, as clothing adds a level of realism that is difficult to achieve solely through carving. The Catalan term for this type of statue is “Cap i Pota,” which means “head and feet,” as in such statues, the head, feet, and hands are intricately crafted, while the torso is not as much, as it was covered by clothing. This particular statue of the Immaculate Virgin Mary was likely intended for home worship, as indicated by its size. The symbolism of the statue represents the Virgin Mary standing on a shining sphere – the moon, which symbolizes heavenly glory, while her foot rests on the head of a serpent, symbolizing sin over which Mary prevails.

    Dimensions: 44 x 16 x 13 cm

    Weight: 1.5 kg

    The statue of the Immaculate Virgin Mary is well-preserved.

    ERGONOMIC CHAIR TAN SAD

    320,00 €

    Ergonomic chair "Do More," manufactured by Tan Sad in England for Ahrend around 1920.

    A special, rare, vintage ergonomic chair in its original condition. It was used by employees of the Opcina tramway in Opicina, making it not only an interesting industrial chair but also one with a fascinating history and story. Ahrend introduced itself to the Dutch market with a series of chairs and tables called "doe meer" (do more). They were manufactured in the Tan Sad factory in England, known for producing the first ergonomic chairs. In 1920, comfort was a significant luxury, and factory workers often sat on benches without backrests. The "Do More" chair was, therefore, far ahead of its time. As seen in advertisements from that era, it promised workers: "The ideal chair for the working person. For use in offices, drafting rooms, laboratories, for operating office machines and telephones, etc. The right support for your work." Due to its specially designed frame – the seat is adjustable in height, and the backrest can be adjusted in height and angle – it is a chair on which you can sit for hours without any issues, while also encouraging proper posture. Dimensions: 82 x 54 x 46 cm Weight: 9.2 kg The chair is in good condition, and although it could be reupholstered, the original cover adds to its sentimental value.

Recognized as an artist ahead of his time, Piero Fornasetti made a significant contribution to the renewal of taste and the creation of a unique and immediately recognizable visual language in contemporary culture.

    SPRING-LOADED CANDLE HOLDER DITMAR

    330,00 €

    Spring-loaded candle holder made by the Ditmar company, produced between 1895 and 1907.

    A rare example of a perfectly preserved spring-loaded candle holder. The candle holder, with its spring, allows you to adjust the height of the candle so that, regardless of the candle's length, it always stays at the same height. An interesting addition to a festive table or a shelf where you can always admire it. Karl Rudolf Ditmar, the founder of the Ditmar company, was born on May 3, 1818, in Prenzlau - Brandenburg. He came to Vienna in 1839. During a business trip to Paris, he is said to have encountered the still-controversial, heavy-working moderator lamp. Improving these lamps soon became his main concern. On August 5, 1840, Ditmar founded a trading company dealing with oil lamps, cups, and lacquered tin. The next step was establishing a workshop for lamp repairs, followed by an attempt at in-house production. Together with his brother Friedrich, whom he invited to Vienna, Rudolf led the company as "Gebrüder Ditmar" in 1841. For this purpose, a "state permit for the production of lacquered tin and zinc composite goods" was issued, creating a legal basis for the first lamp factory in Vienna and Austria. During this time, the brothers succeeded in developing the "Viennese moderator lamp," a spring-loaded lamp that was both inexpensive and reliable due to its adjustable oil supply. After the death of his brother Friedrich in 1858, "Gebrüder" was removed from the company's name, and it became Lampen Fabrik R. Ditmar. Even after his death in 1895, the company retained his name and tradition. Dimensions: 41 x 11.5 cm Weight: 510 g The spring-loaded candle holder is in excellent condition.
