Argenteria "La Sfinge" - Figurine - Cacciatore - .925 silver

Artistic silver statuette with wooden base and an undefined sculptural core.
• Subject: Hunter in field attire (jacket, shirt, brimmed hat, cartridge belt with bullets), with a double-barreled gun and a hunting dog (probably a bracco or setter with the game in its mouth, probably a partridge) in a dynamic pose at the base.
• Technique: 925 sterling silver fusion, with hand finishing for details (you can see the file marks in the folds of the fabric and on the dog’s snout).
• Style: Realistic, with attention to naturalistic details (tree bark, rocks, leaves).
• Edition: The certificate indicates "Limited Edition", so it is part of a numbered series; the only number on the certificate is (ST. 47).
From the labels and the certificate, the object is declared "ON 925‰ SILVER" with "SILVER WEIGHT GUARANTEED". However, the certificate has the weight field and the edition number fields unfilled (or illegible).
There is an ambiguity to clarify:
• If it is solid 925 silver, at a height of 31 cm the weight could be between 1.5–3 kg or more, with a very high intrinsic value of the metal.
• If it has a metal/resin core with a 925 silver coating, the weight of real silver would be much lower (a few hundred grams), and the value would be mainly artistic/collectible.
The certificate mentions that the item possesses "an intrinsic and tangible value due to its weight in precious metal," which points to a significant amount of silver, but not necessarily a massive piece.
This is a valuable object over 40 years old, part of a family collection.
Object complete with certification.
Natural patina on the silver and signs of age.
