A Stunning Large Carafe Made Of Solid Silver, 800/000 Fineness, Completely And Exquisitely
An impressive large solid silver carafe, 800/000 fineness, completely and finely embossed, engraved, and hand-chiseled in Italy during the 1930s–40s. The fantastic handle features a large triton fish intertwined with a dragon. On the front, there is a large mask and the heraldic symbol of a noble Italian family. There are also leaves, dolphins, rocaille motifs, and countless intricate hand-carved details inspired by mythology. A unique and extremely rare piece, a sculptural object the likes of which have not been seen in a long time—perhaps intended only for museums or the palaces of noble families on commission. Imagine—it stands 83 cm tall!!! Width: 29 cm; Weight: 6.237 kg
