Description from the seller
Note Bene: for operational reasons shipments will not be guaranteed from March 30 to April 3, and will resume normally from Tuesday, April 7. We apologize in advance for the inconvenience.
Artistic Sculpture "Lovers' Swans" in Laminated Silver
Elegant modern sculpture depicting two stylized swans in a gesture of affection, characterized by sinuous lines and an essential design with a strong aesthetic impact. The work is made with a refined lamination technique that covers an internal structure, allowing generous volumes and a luster typical of solid silver.
The sculpture rests on a square base in glossy black stone material, which provides stability and chromatic prominence to the figure.
Technical Details:
Material: Silver surface with internal core.
Stamping: The object bears stamps indicating metal quality (including references 925 and R for reinforced/laminated silver), guaranteeing artisanal workmanship.
Base: pedestal in black marble.
Finish: Mirror-silver with incised details on the wings.
peso 700 g
Conditions:
The object is in good vintage condition. The surface shows a characteristic patina of time and slight signs of oxidation that attest to its authenticity and era. This patina can be maintained for a more "antique" taste or easily removed with specific products to restore the original brilliance of the metal.
Seller's Story
Welcome to a fascinating journey into the beating heart of the 20th century, where the objects that animated that era are transformed into custodians of timeless stories, passions and emotions in a journey that combines the elegance of antiques with the unmistakable charm of vintage.
From a land rich in traditions like Italy, and in particular from the vibrant South, I dedicate myself with passion to the search for unique finds, authentic witnesses of a century full of history and innovation.
Every object, whether it is an antique piece of furniture or a rare vintage item, carries with it stories and emotions, evoking memories of a time that continues to inspire.
