Description from the seller

Magnificent and elegant centerpiece / fruit bowl crafted in high-quality alpaca, acquired at the historic and prestigious Jotería Aparicio of Oviedo (the piece preserves the original jewelry seal/mit in the piece).
​The piece stands out for its elaborate central stem featuring a sculptural swan with detailed work on the plumage of the wings. The swan holds an oval bowl with a softly lobed edge and crowned by two stylized scroll-like handles. It rests on a solid square base that guarantees sturdiness and elegance.

Condition:
In good vintage condition, with a light patina and some typical, time-worn signs that give character to this type of piece and do not detract from its presence.

Shipping: It will be shipped perfectly packaged, protected, and with a tracking number.
