AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Magnificent salver in Portuguese silver, contrasted with Águia (1938–1984), with a fineness of 833 thousandths.

A large piece with a broadly worked relief-recessed rim, presenting exuberant decoration of volutes, shell motifs and vegetal motifs — hallmark characteristics of the Baroque/Rocaille style.

The smooth center creates an elegant contrast with the surrounding ornamentation, making this salver ideal for both serving and as a decorative centerpiece.

Given its size and weight, it is an imposing piece, perfect for classic tables, sideboards, or collectors of Portuguese silver.

Shows normal signs of use and natural patina, consistent with its age, which reinforces its authenticity.

Approximate weight: 507 g
Approximate diameter: 37 cm

Seller's Story

Dear customer, our passion, knowledge and experience are watches (vintage). These watches are restored by our watchmakers and are fully verified to work well. Note that vintage mechanical watches can never be 100% accurate at the right time. A small daily change is normal. We are not responsible for import duties and/or other surcharges customary in your country on the importation of goods. The many detailed photos are part of the description and give you a good idea of the watch you are going to bid on. We cannot guarantee the water resistance of our watches, even if they are diving watches. You should never wear our watches in the shower, in the pool or at sea! We guarantee the proper functioning of the watch purchased! This means you get our guarantee that the watch works properly, we don't provide any paper for that. Automatic watches need wrist movement to function properly. If you don't move your wrist a lot, the automatic watch won't run at full power. This can be a problem, especially with older, larger automatics. Normally, the clock can also be started manually! Our shipping costs are based on having your batch packed, securing shipping and packaging materials. If you are unable or unwilling to accept these costs, please do not bid. Good luck with your bids.
