Old Spanish Colonial Silver Milagro, Ex Voto

Ex votos and milagros, are commissioned by a devotee and brought to a church as an offering for a promise fulfilled. This is a wonderful ex voto depicting a man in prayer (despite the long hair, the man is in the typical waistcoat and pants from the turn of the century), perhaps as a testament to faith. The ex voto is formed from heavy silver using the repoussé method and is in excellent condition.

Measurements: 2 1/2 " x 1 3/4 "; 19.8 grams
