Lourdes blown glass religious bottle, silver-plated rose stopper, vintage decor

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

This religious bottle features a meticulously crafted blown glass design, typical of devotional objects brought back from Lourdes. The visible side reveals a transparent, curved bottle, whose surface offers beautiful clarity and a slightly faceted effect on the sides. The stopper features a stylized rose shape with a silvered appearance, adding a refined decorative touch to the whole.

On the front, a small religious scene is integrated within the glass: two distinct figures in relief are visible, one in a prayer position facing a standing figure, evoking the Marian apparition of Lourdes. This decoration is made with a metallic finish, elegantly contrasting with the transparency of the bottle. No text or markings are visible on the presented side.

The piece as a whole testifies to traditional craftsmanship: the blown glass offers nuanced reflections depending on the light, while the carved rose-shaped stopper reinforces the spiritual and commemorative spirit of the object. The appearance of the glass and the patina of the interior decoration suggest an antique piece, in the style of religious souvenirs from the second half of the 20th century, without being able to attribute a precise decade.

The visible details do not show any major chips or cracks on the surface of the bottle. The interior relief retains its shapes, although a slight patina is noticeable on the metallic part, typical of a vintage object exposed to light.

This religious Lourdes bottle will naturally find its place as a decoration on a shelf, a bedside table, or in a prayer space. Its refined aesthetic and strong symbolism make it a decorative object full of meaning.

Condition: Used item, sold as is. Shows a slight patina on the interior ornament and possible signs of use consistent with its age. See photos for more details.

Did you know? Lourdes is one of the largest Catholic pilgrimage centers in the world since the apparitions of 1858. Bottles of this type, often made of blown glass, were traditionally brought back as souvenirs containing holy water from the spring of the Grotto of Massabielle.
