Description from the seller

Beautiful silver hallmarked SNAIL figurine in excellent condition.

This charming and highly detailed miniature depicts a realistic snail with a smoothly polished shell and finely modelled body, antennae and foot.

The piece has a lovely mirror-like finish that catches the light beautifully from every angle.

Details:
Material: silver lamimated (hallmarked – clear circular assay/maker’s mark visible on the shell)

Weight: 55 grams
Dimensions: approx. 8 cm × 3.5 cm × 3.5 cm

Period: Mid-20th century (circa 1950s–1980s)

Origin: Florence, Italy

Condition: Very good vintage condition with a lovely patina consistent with age. It needs only a light clean to remove the tarnish. The hallmark remains clear and legible.

A delightful decorative object or collector’s piece that displays wonderfully on a shelf, desk or in a cabinet of curiosities.
