1250 Champlevé Enamel Champleveenamel Gilded Copper Gothic Period Limoges Mid 13th Century Limousin


EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art from the Gothic period in France. The Pyx, dating back to approximately 1250, was crafted in Limousin, Limoges and is a true testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of that era. Made from gilded copper with champlevé enamel detailing, this Pyx measures 8.3 x 10.4 cm (3 1/4 x 4 1/8 in. ) and exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. The intricate design on the Pyx reflects the distinct characteristics of Gothic art with its pointed arches, delicate tracery patterns, and ornate embellishments. The use of gilded copper adds a touch of opulence while the champlevé enamel technique brings vibrant colors to life against the golden backdrop. As we gaze upon this stunning artifact, we are transported back to the mid-13th century when it was created - a time when religious devotion permeated every aspect of life. This Pyx would have held consecrated hosts for Holy Communion during Mass ceremonies. Today, this print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic mastery but also serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage. It stands as a testament to human creativity throughout history and reminds us that even centuries later, these masterpieces continue to captivate our hearts and minds.
