EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 17th century bouquet holder, featuring the biblical figures of Adam and Eve, is a stunning example of the intricate carvings and decorative arts that emerged during this period. The Belgian or Flemish piece, estimated to be from the late 1600s, showcases the masterful craftsmanship of its unknown creator. The boxwood base is adorned with intricate detailing, including the figures of Adam and Eve, who are depicted in their original state before the fall of mankind, holding a golden apple. The figures are connected by a delicate metal chain, adding an elegant touch to the piece. The vase-like holder is designed to hold flowers, making it a beautiful and functional addition to any home. The close-up image reveals the rich color and texture of the hand-carved wood, which has only improved with age. This piece is a testament to the artistic and religious heritage of the Old Testament, and a reminder of the timeless beauty and significance of the stories and symbols it represents. Currently on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), this unknown masterpiece continues to captivate and inspire visitors, showcasing the enduring allure of the decorative arts from the seventeenth century.
