Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary Cobalt Blue Mirrored Wall Plaques
A pair of mid-century religious wall plaques featuring the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Each piece is constructed from a vibrant cobalt blue, oval-shaped mirror with a beveled edge, measuring approximately 8 to 10 inches in height. Centered on each mirror is a bas-relief bust crafted from cast metal with a satin gold or brass-toned finish. The busts are highly detailed, showing the classic profiles of Jesus and Mary with their respective hearts radiating light in the 'Scapular' style. The craftsmanship is typical of high-quality Catholic devotional items from the 1940s to 1960s, often produced by companies like the Syracuse Ornamental Company (Syroco) or similar liturgical art manufacturers. The blue glass shows light scratches consistent with age and occasional slight silvering loss or edge chipping typical of vintage mirrors. The metal components exhibit a slight patina with minor tarnish in recessed areas, which adds to the three-dimensional depth of the figures. This specific combination of deep blue glass and gold-toned metal creates a striking Art Deco-influenced aesthetic common in mid-20th-century home shrines.
