Libra is one of the signs of the zodiac in astrology. This small wall plague shows the weighing scales which represents the sign of Libra. The plaque is made of wood, with a painted antique surface. I am guessing that this plaque is from the 1950s or 1960s. It was manufactured by E.A Riba Co, Inc. in Brooklyn N.Y. The style of the frame is number 344. This plaque is 4 inches square.

Anri Madonna Mary Jesus Italy Wood Carved Vintage
This is an exceptional Anri hand carved, hand painted
figurine of the Madonna; Mary and Jesus.
It was made in Italy. The Anri
company began in 1912. This is an early
piece and is hand carved from wood and delicately hand painted. The cut off turning spindle is seen on the
bottom along with two heat brands burned into the base. There are also two ink stamped marks,
including the Anri mark. One familiar
with the Anri marks would likely be able to tell who did the carving. This figure is about 5.5 inches tall.
