Description
Ex-Voto heart in clay by Cuore di Argilla - Zodiac
The Cuore d'Argilla are handmade in clay by an artisan in Italy and then painted.
Inspired by the astrological signs that adorn the clock of San Marco in Venice, this ex-voto is beautifully handcrafted and painted in Majorelle blue color.
The signs of the zodiac are decorated with gold leaf and surrounded by a frame of feathered angel wings.
Dimensions about 16x22cm, they are all different because they are handmade so the sizes are variable.
