AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
In auction, an enchanting oval bowl in 800 silver, a piece of classic Italian silverware from the mid-20th century. This object combines the elegance of form with the robustness of high-quality silver.
Main Features:
Material: Solid silver (hallmark 800).
Shape: Oval with rope rim, a decorative finish that provides texture and refinement.
Support: The bowl rests on four elegant lion paw feet, which elevate the piece and add a touch of historic and classic style.
Period: Dating to the mid-20th century (circa the 1950s-60s), a golden era for high-quality Italian silverware.
Manufacture: Italian manufacture, evidenced by the "800" hallmark. The piece also bears a second unidentified mark, probably the maker’s or silversmith’s mark, unfortunately not distinguishable due to wear.
Condition: The item is in overall excellent condition, with a lovely patina of time. As seen in the images, the silver shows natural oxidation, which can be polished if a mirror shine is desired, but many collectors prefer to keep it as a sign of authenticity and history. The interior is clean and well preserved.
Dimensions and Weight:
Length: 13 cm
Width: 10 cm
Height: 4 cm
Weight: 78 grams
A timeless classic: The traditional style and lion paw feet never go out of fashion.
Quality silver: The 800 hallmark guarantees authenticity and material value.
Perfect as a gift or for personal use: Ideal as a snack bowl, for jewelry, or simply as a decorative object.
Carefully examine all images for a complete assessment of condition.
