Description
A superb Alcudia photo frame in solid sterling silver (.925), crafted in Spain during the mid-1980s and preserved in exceptional, near-new condition. This piece embodies a rare and highly desirable balance between classical structure and modern restraint.
The frame is defined by its Roman-inspired mitred profile, articulated through crisp stepped fluting that gives the silver a strong architectural presence. This classical language is deliberately softened by smooth, rounded corners, introducing a modern and minimalist counterpoint. The result is an elegant coexistence of two styles: neoclassical discipline and contemporary clarity.
The silver surface reflects light with a clean, mirror-like brilliance, enhancing photographs without overpowering them. It is an ideal setting for wedding portraits, anniversary photographs, family heirlooms, and Christmas displays, elevating any image it holds.
With an approximate weight of 708 grams, the frame has the reassuring density expected of collectible Spanish silver. The reverse features a tortoiseshell-effect backing (carey-style), fitted with a stable stand and secured by a traditional two-tab closure. Hallmarks are present on the lower edge, including the 925 purity mark and the silversmith’s stamp, confirming authenticity.
Preserved in its original Alcudia box and accompanied by its guarantee certificate, this frame is offered in perfect condition (5/5). A refined and luxurious choice for collectors and an exceptional Christmas or wedding gift for those who appreciate European silver craftsmanship.
