Lion, Heraldic Type, In Solid Silver.
Beautiful lion standing on its hind legs, it criniere, long tail curved in a wide circle, and resting on the terrace. This one features fruit and foliage. The animal is menacing, its mouth half-open in an aggressive, dominating stance. A hole under the head, in the middle of the chest. This lion had a hundred or so domestic uses: toothpick holder, or perhaps a small bottle with a missing stopper. Very fine workmanship.
