Description from the seller
Italian Musical Minatures – Yeso Designer – 925 Silver
Elegant and uncommon set of musical miniatures made in solid 925 silver by the renowned Italian designer Yeso, from Arezzo (Italy), one of the most important historic centers of silver production in Europe.
This charming set represents a musical group composed of several musicians with instruments, executed in the characteristic expressive style of designer Yeso. The figures feature elongated proportions, dynamic poses, and an excellent level of detail in the instruments and clothing, conveying a scene full of movement and artistic character.
The miniatures stand out for their distinctive sculptural style, typical of Italian design in the second half of the 20th century, combining humor, elegance, and dynamism in each figure.
Yeso is an Italian designer known for his silver miniatures with musical scenes and stylized figures. His works are distinguished by:
• Expressive and dynamic style
• Stylized and elongated figures

• Pieces highly valued by collectors
The pieces feature clearly visible marks:

• ☆ 131 AR — Official Italian register
• AR — Arezzo, Italy

• Accordionist
• Guitarist
• Violinist
• Drummer
• Independent drum set
Each figure is made individually and can be placed independently to create different compositions.
