Mother Mary Christian Tin, Pocket Shrine, Vintage Holy Card, Assemblage Art, Retablo, Nicho, Rosary Box, Travel Altar

Great for a gift, great to use as a keepsake box...write your worries down and keep them here!  Also a nice place to store your rosary beads. Wonderful for all kinds of display or in an altar.  Good for travel. 

Completely original and one of a kind. I really enjoyed doing this one and I hope you enjoy it.

Listing is for ONE altar box, the pictures shown are of the outside front, back, inside and sides. 

This is an art assemblage/collage on a metal tin similar in size to an altoid tin.  I painted and embellished all the background papers. The inner front words are taken from the 6th verse of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen". The image was taken from a vintage Holy Card which I obtained from Graphics Fairy and hand inked/painted.  The front and back have a turquoise and copper patina.  There is a cross, a rosary medal, ribbon and rhinestones throughout the piece.  The whole piece is full of embellishments, embossing glazes, care, love and hand painted additions.  This is One of a Kind piece.  The whole art piece is well sealed and assembled using artist archival quality varnish and gels. 

The tin measures 9.5 cm x 6 cm and is 2 cm deep (3.75 " x 2.4" x .75")
