AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant sculptural miniature made of 925 silver representing a classic car in the Ford Touring / Ford Model T style from the early 20th century.
Magnificent decorative piece executed entirely in silver, with an extraordinary level of detail:
• spoked wheels,
• antique headlights,
• steering wheel,
• running boards,
• seats,
• open framework typical of the early luxury automobiles.
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 produced between 1908 and 1915.
The piece bears the Spanish star hallmark corresponding to sterling silver 925, as well as a positive reaction in the acid test for high-purity silver.
The quality of execution reveals very fine artisanal craftsmanship, especially visible in:
• the wheels with spokes,
• the small mechanical elements,
• the fenders,
• the interior of the vehicle,
• and the chassis structure.
This type of miniature was created as a collectible object and luxury decoration for enthusiasts of classic cars and artistically designed silverware.
Dimensions:
• length: 10.5 cm
• width: 5.5 cm
• height: 6 cm
Weight:
• 211 g
Very good condition, with a light noble patina typical of silver.
An elegant piece, very decorative and highly collectible.
