AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Precious 800 silver carafe, finely chased. It rests on three feet, also worked. On the neck, a face and floral motifs are depicted. The lid is also embellished with a flower with petals and stamens finely worked.

It bears two hallmarks on the base: 800 and 445 MI (the latter hallmark identifies the artist FERDINANDO MELONCELLI, one of the most important Italian artists).

Approximate dimensions:
Height: 34 cm.
Weight: 1,198 grams

Hand pickup is preferred (Italy, Puglia region). If shipped, it travels at the buyer’s expense and risk; no guarantee is provided, it is sold as seen, in the condition in which it is, as shown in the photos that form an essential part of the description, with no possibility of return. Given the object’s value, insuring it is advised, which is excluded from the object’s price. It is shipped throughout the European Union; any customs costs of any kind are borne by the buyer.
