AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Antique Silver Napkin Ring — Horse and Cart Decoration

An unusual antique silver napkin ring, of broad shaped form, finely decorated in relief with a charming pastoral scene depicting a horse pulling a cart filled with flowers.

The central scene is framed by an elegant border of raised floral and foliate motifs, with further ornamental decoration extending around the sides. The textured background and naturally developed patina create an attractive contrast, highlighting the finely worked details of the composition.

A particularly decorative and appealing piece, distinguished by its unusual rural subject and detailed repoussé and chased workmanship. The interior has a warm golden finish, apparently silver-gilt (vermeil).

Material: Silver
Decoration: Repoussé and chased floral motifs with horse and cart scene
Interior: Gilt
Period: Late 19th / early 20th century, circa 1890–1920
Dimension: 5.0x2.5cm
Weight: 4.3g

In antique condition, with surface wear and natural patina consistent with age and use.

Note: A clear close-up photograph of the hallmarks visible on the side may allow a more precise identification of the country of origin, silver standard, date and possibly the maker.
