AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful mother-of-pearl Nautilus, sectioned and mounted on a refined base of turned wood and brass.
If, on one hand, this piece captivates with the iridescent color shifts of the mother-of-pearl, on the other we can admire its interior where the characteristic spiral of seven chambers is on display.
The base is Onix.
A collectible piece for lovers of the species, which thanks to Made in Italy craftsmanship, becomes an elegant decorative element.
