Step into a gentle devotional atmosphere with this beautifully crafted vintage wooden religious plaque, featuring a serene raised relief of the Madonna / Virgin Mary. Mounted on a rich red-stained wooden shield-shaped base, the piece blends warmth, spirituality, and classic decorative appeal.
The relief itself has a metallic bronze-tone finish, framed with ornate floral and scrollwork details. It is designed for wall hanging, with both a keyhole slot and a lower channel on the back—ideal for a secure, flush fit.
Whether your interest is devotional art, vintage religious keepsakes, or simply creating a peaceful space at home, this plaque brings a quiet dignity and presence to any room.
This type of devotional plaque was widely produced in Europe from the 1960s–1990s, often sold in religious gift shops, abbey stores, and pilgrimage shrines.
The cast relief style reflects traditional Catholic iconography, honouring Mary as a symbol of grace, compassion, and intercession. These plaques were commonly displayed in bedrooms, prayer corners, hallways, and chapels.
Vintage religious plaque in good used condition. The cast Madonna relief is intact with no major flaws, showing only light age-related patina consistent with storage. The wooden base retains a strong colour and shine, though small scuffs, minor surface wear, and a few storage marks can be seen around the edges—typical for a vintage devotional display piece. The back includes the original hanging slot and channel and remains structurally sound. No cracks or structural damage noted. A charming, atmospheric item for collectors of Christian memorabilia, religious wall art, Catholic décor, Marian iconography, prayer-room accessories, vintage plaques, and spiritual home decoration.
Your plaque will be carefully wrapped, boxed, and sent tracked & insured for peace of mind.

Devotional wall plaques became especially popular after pilgrimages to sites such as Lourdes and Fatima increased during the mid-20th century—many travellers purchased similar cast-relief plaques as keepsakes or blessings for their homes.
