Description from the seller

Miniature sculpture in 800 silver depicting an octopus, crafted with great care in the naturalistic details and in the tactile rendering of the surfaces.

The work features a finely worked body with a satin finish and tentacles modeled individually, complete with raised suckers that confer dynamism and realism to the composition.

Visible punch marks on the body bearing the silver hallmark “800” and the mark of the Italian silversmith, indicating production in the 20th century.

The piece stands out for the quality of the casting and for the three-dimensional sculptural workmanship, ideal as a collectible piece or decorative element for lovers of the marine world and of artistic silverware.

Good general condition with normal signs of wear.
Measurements: cm 10x7x6. Weight: g.58
