Description from the seller
Elegant Neoclassical Alabaster Stand Hand-Carved – Italian Vintage
Add a touch of timeless classic elegance to your home with this splendid ornamental bowl in precious alabaster. Characterized by a warm honey hue with unique natural veining, this handmade creation embodies the refined taste of Italian craftsmanship of the last century.
Details that make the difference:
Superior Craftsmanship: The edge is finely worked with a fluted (petaled) motif that creates an enchanting play of light and shadow.
Precious Material: Made of solid alabaster (or yellow marble), known for its translucency and delicate natural nuances that make each piece unique.
Timeless Design: The chalice-like structure rests on a solid square base, recalling the style of ancient Roman baths and neoclassical monuments.
Interior styling ideas:
Perfect as a refined catchall at the entrance, as a centerpiece for small jewelry, or simply as an art object on a bookshelf or fireplace. Its "Old World" aesthetic pairs magnificently with both classic furnishings and eclectic, modern interiors.
Detachable as shown in the photo.
It does not fix in place but rests.
Technical Features:
Origin: Italy (Tuscan/Venetian craftsmanship).
Style: Neoclassical / Vintage.
Condition: Excellent vintage condition. The stone bears its natural patina of time, authenticating its era and charm (please view the photos for details).
Dimensions: 18x18x10 cm; weight 1 kg.
