AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Refined and unusual table match holder (or small decorative container) fully crafted in solid silver with fineness 800.
The item stands out for its original and ironic design, finely shaped in the form of the classic men's top hat.
At the base, the legal hallmarks are clearly visible and legible: the silver fineness "800", the historical Italian factory mark "39 PA" (corresponding to the Palermo workshop of Salvatore Grilli, registered in 1969) and the engraved signature of the brand "i grilli".
Conditions: The piece is in good vintage condition, solid and free from dents. It shows the traditional deep dark patina of oxidation due to time, which underscores its authenticity (it can be easily restored to the original mirror-bright shine with a simple silver polish, at the buyer's discretion).
A unique collectible piece, perfect as a decorative element for an elegant desk, a living room, or as a classy gift idea.
Dimensions: Height 2.5 cm, Width 5.2 cm, Length 5.2 cm
Weight: 10 g
Shipping: Careful packaging that protects the item.
