AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Decorative metal/bronze anchor – vintage piece with inscription “2e prijs – Vissen ’98”
A decorative anchor-shaped piece, crafted in metal with a darkened bronze-like finish, featuring a robust aesthetic and vintage character.
The piece has a stylized design, with curved and balanced lines, mounted on a small integrated base that allows stable display on flat surfaces. It stands out for the inscription engraved “2e prijs – Vissen ’98”, suggesting it may be a trophy or prize associated with an event (possibly a fishing competition, given the Dutch term “Vissen,” meaning fishing).
It also includes an articulated/decorative ring element at the upper area, reinforcing the visual interest and authenticity of the object.
Dimensions (approximate):
• Length: about 17–18 cm
• Height: about 20–21 cm
Material:
Metal (likely bronze or alloy with a darkened patina)
Condition:
Good overall. It shows natural patina from age and slight signs of use, which enhance the vintage character of the piece.
Notes:
Ideal item for nautical-themed decor, maritime memorabilia collectors, or as a curious piece with historical/symbolic value.
Seller's Story
I am passionate about art, antiques, and decorative objects with historical and aesthetic value. I carefully select unique pieces for auction, prioritizing those that stand out for their originality, quality, and history.
I have a special affinity for antique mirrors inspired by the work of Alphonse Mucha, acquired from private collections and antique shops in Portugal and France. I also place great importance on pieces made of carved wood, especially in gilded relief, which represent the refinement and craftsmanship of classical decorative arts.
