This charming set depicts iconic African wildlife, each miniature sculpture handcrafted in sterling silver and mounted on a polished Zimbabwean dark wood base.

Patrick Mavros founded his renowned luxury brand in Zimbabwe over forty years ago. Today his creations are collected worldwide and sold through his flagship London boutique in Chelsea as well as his ateliers in Africa. His work is celebrated for combining exceptional silversmithing with a deep appreciation of African wildlife and craftsmanship.

The lot includes 10 individual place card holders featuring various African animals, including:

Each piece is mounted on a Zimbabwean dark wood base and bears the Patrick Mavros monogram.
