A Fabulous Pair Of Antique Italian Altar Vases With Red Coral Flowers, 1700's

This is a fabulous pair of extremely rare and highly decorative antique Italian altar vases that date from the 18th century. The vases are hand carved from wood and gilded. Each vase contains a branch of flowers constructed from remarkable red coral beads. They were discovered recently in Tuscany and are exactly as I discovered them, with signs of ageing that in my opinion only brings forth their true beauty and splendour today. The vases are in stunningly distressed patina. For the full condition please refer to the images!
