An alabaster decorative slab from Florence, Tuscany, dating to 1850–1900, carved with a Florentine lily motif; measures 40 cm high by 33 cm wide, 4 cm deep and weighs 7 kg.
Description from the seller
Polished decorative alabaster relief slab, sculpted with an elegant Florentine lily motif, a symbol par excellence of Tuscan tradition and Medicean identity. The quality of the material, with a soft, luminous surface, gives the object a sober yet highly decorative presence, capable of enhancing classic, historical, or eclectic interiors.
The execution, even in its essentiality, yields a strong heraldic appeal, making the piece interesting both as a furnishing element and as a historical testimony of the mother city of the Renaissance. The patina and the faint traces of time emphasize its authentic charm.
Originating from a residence near the well-known Villa Medicea of Poggio a Caiano, in the Florentine hills, the slab carries with it the enchantment of a location tied to a historic and territorial context of great value. This origin enhances its collectible and decorative interest, suggesting use in formal settings or Tuscan-style interiors.
The object shows normal signs of age, compatible with its age and use. Natural irregularities of the material, small abrasions and defects consistent with the workmanship and conservation over time are visible, which do not compromise its overall aesthetic legibility.
Dimensions: 40 cm height x 33 cm width. Weight 7 kg.
