AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Napkin ring silver
Portugal assay mark (1887-1937), 833/000, and same date marker's mark.
Silver napkin ring of circular form with a slightly convex body, richly decorated in high relief with naturalistic motifs depicting thistles and intertwined stylized foliage.
The decoration runs continuously around the entire surface, featuring blooming thistles, spiky leaves, and sinuous stems, finely detailed and well modeled, creating contrast between polished highlights and matte recessed backgrounds. At the center appears an engraved monogram with the initials “F.R.F.” in flowing cursive script.
A decorative piece of distinctly naturalistic character, consistent with the Art Nouveau taste of the late 19th to early 20th century. In good overall condition, with patina appropriate to its age.
