Antique Signed Rogeaux Meerschaum Religious Relief under Convex Glass

This antique devotional piece features a finely carved meerschaum religious relief, signed Rogeaux (1850-1870), depicting a tender Christian figural scene rendered in soft, sculptural detail. The relief is set beneath original convex glass, adding depth and presence while protecting the carving.

Housed in an ornate carved wood frame with scrolling foliage and beadwork, the piece reflects late 19th-century European craftsmanship. The wood has developed a deep, warm patina, while the meerschaum retains its characteristic ivory tone with subtle surface variation.

Age-appropriate wear, fine cracks, and surface marks are present throughout, consistent with both material and age, and contribute to the authenticity of the piece.
