AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Large Vintage Miniature in solid 800 silver - Cinderella's Carriage (9 cm) - Italy
Exceptional vintage miniature in solid 800 silver, depicting the iconic pumpkin carriage from Cinderella's fairy tale. A mid-20th-century Italian collectible piece, notable for its unusually large and sturdy scale for this type of miniature object.
Dimension and Visual Impact:
With about 9×4×3 cm of total length and a solid weight of 35 grams, this is a large-format miniature with excellent presence in a collection display case.
Origin and Authenticity:
Made in Italy (post-1968 period), it bears two official metal stamps: the oval alloy mark "800" and the rectangular truncated diamond mark of the official Italian manufacturer (marchio di fabbrica).
High-Rich Details:
The pumpkin-shaped cab presents intricate hollowed-out filigree and scrollwork. At the front, the detailed coachman figure holds the original metal rein connected to the horse in a galloping pose. The spoked wheels are movable.
Condition:
Excellent vintage condition, with very well-preserved details. It retains the delicate strand of the original rein (a highly delicate element that is lost in most of these pieces) and shows a natural patina of age that enhances the details. It has a slight golden hue from being gold-plated, difficult to capture in photo, though worn by time but still enhances the piece's beauty.
Base not included.
