Bellarmine with Cartouche. Pottery Bellarmine Bellarmine with Cartouche. 210 mm. 1600s
Restored. The face and cartouche are original. A crack below the face where it has been glued together, looks like there have been a few pieces as another glue line goes below the cartouche and there appears to be another section below this glued as well. The entire rear is painted in the upper half where a restoration has occurred, the handle is original as is the neck so this restoration starts below and around the handle. Some chips and nibbles to the base edge. A few hairlines. Whilst this is heavily restored, it is a decent enough job. Both the vendor and previous owner were unaware of its restoration! Grade: 0 Estimate: $200 - 300
