AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
An elegant vintage decorative vase crafted in sterling silver (.925), attributed to Greek craftsmanship and dating from the late 1960s to early 1970s.
The vase features a graceful flared silhouette with a beautifully textured body, complemented by polished silver accents and finely engraved floral motifs. It is adorned with three oval purple cabochon stones, each set within an ornate bezel that is most likely gilded (gold-washed) sterling silver, creating an attractive contrast with the bright silver surface.
The combination of the textured finish, delicate floral decoration, and gemstone embellishments reflects the refined craftsmanship characteristic of mid-20th-century Greek silverwork. Its elegant proportions make it a beautiful decorative object, suitable for display as a bud vase or as part of a collection of fine silver.
