AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant sculptural miniature made in 925 silver representing a classic car of the Ford Touring / Ford Model T type from the early 20th century.
Magnificent decorative piece executed entirely in silver, with an extraordinary level of detail:
• calved wheels,
• antique headlights,
• steering wheel,
• side steps,
• seats,
• typical open framework of the first luxury cars.
The sculpture faithfully reproduces the spirit of Belle Époque vehicles and the dawn of the American automotive industry, inspired by the famous Ford Touring and Ford Model T models built between 1908 and 1915.
The piece bears a Spanish star hallmark corresponding to silver 925, as well as a positive reaction in acid testing for high-purity silver.
The quality of execution reveals a very fine handmade craftsmanship, especially noticeable in:
• the wheels with spokes,
• the small mechanical elements,
• the fenders,
• the interior of the vehicle,
• and the chassis structure.
These types of miniatures were created as collectible objects and luxury decorations for lovers of classic cars and art silverware.
Measurements:
• length: 10.5 cm
• width: 5.5 cm
• height: 6 cm
Weight:
• 211 g
Condition: very good, with a light noble patina typical of silver.
An elegant piece, highly decorative and highly collectible.
