AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Exquisite sculptural miniature of a poodle, crafted in 925 sterling silver by the renowned Spanish master goldsmith Francisco Vera, an unquestionable reference in animalist silver sculpture of the 20th century.
The piece stands out for its extraordinary detail: the poodle's curly coat is reproduced with a meticulousness and mastery that only an artist of Francisco Vera's caliber could achieve. Each curl, each gesture, each proportion reflects the deep knowledge of the animal and the artistic sensitivity characteristic of its author.
A piece that combines artistic value, silver value, and rarity — Francisco Vera miniatures are increasingly difficult to find on the market and highly valued by Spanish and international collectors.
Weight: 43 g of silver 925
Dimensions: 5 x 4 x 1 cm
Decorative and top-level collectible piece. Ideal as an exclusive gift or for adding to a collection of Spanish silverware.
