From Italy, this small limestone plaque depicts a hand-carved twisting vine with three large leaves in bas relief. Presented horizontally, the vine meanders the entire length of the rectangular plaque. The gray limestone has developed a wonderful, mottled patina with elements of black, white, and gold. Our bas relief plaque would make a decorative architectural for a garden, patio, or even indoors.
CONDITION: Very good condition. Intentional distress marks. Presence of lichen accumulation, with additional patina, presenting as a mottling of black, white, and gold. Limestone is a natural material that can change color with exposure to the elements.
