AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Oriental sculpture in 925 silver – Signature "De Marco"
Refined sculpture in solid silver depicting a deity or noble Oriental figure, characterized by exceedingly high craftsmanship in the details of the drapery and ornaments. The work rests on an elegant circular base of turned wood with a polished cherry finish, which enhances its metallic luster.
Technical Specifications
Material: 925 silver (Sterling Silver), as confirmed by the oval hallmark visible on the vest.
The artist's signature 'De Marco' hand-engraved directly on the metal at the back.
Please provide the 925 silver hallmark and the maker's identifying punch (Italian premium craftsmanship).
The figure supports a sacred or symbolic object in the right hand, while the left holds a chain-linked element; the crown is finely chased with radiating motifs.
Base: premium wood with a glossy finish, designed to provide stability and dynamism to the figure.
Description and Usage Tips
This sculpture represents an excellent example of artistic silverware, where De Marco's signature guarantees meticulous care in the anatomy and movement of the drapery. It is a collectible piece perfect to be displayed as a focal point in a showcase or on an executive desk. The silver patina is natural and can be polished to achieve an even more vivid sheen, or left as is to appreciate the depth of the reliefs.
Excellent condition: The silver shows no dents or deep scratches; the wooden base is intact and retains its original shine.
