Hi. I’m Amanda. I’m so hoping that someone at your gallery might be able to help me get some info on a vintage piece of art I acquired recently.
I love astrology and/or celestial themed art. Over the summer I was out of state on vacation and at a tiny little flea market, I came across a BEAUTIFUL wooden plaque of the twelve zodiac symbols. It is hand carved & painted and appears to have some age to it.
On the back of it is the original tag… it reads:
Ped. n.°
Dep. n.° 280
BONACHERA
& ANDUJAR
152
MADE IN SPAIN
The numbers 280 & 152 are stamped in ink that has faded.
I have looked on the web for any info I could find about this particular piece. I have only found much smaller wooden zodiac carvings (but only singular zodiac symbols) from the same artist.
I would greatly appreciate any info about it that someone could give me. Maybe a time frame of its making, the value of the plaque, and info on the artist themselves, etc.
Thank You
