Early solid silver crown that was used for a creche figure, as can be seen by the photo of the underside where the attachment hole is located. I don't see a marking on the piece, but it is quite heavy, has intricate carving, and I was told it was acquired from an antique dealer in Peru. It stands 4 1/2" tall including the cross, and the diameter of the inside circle is a bit more than 1 1/4". $750. |
