AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Silver 925 photo frame – Antonio Fallaci – Florence, Italy, 20th century (mid-1960s)
Elegant Italian silver 925 photo frame, characterized by refined artisanal surface workmanship and a rich perimetric corded border decoration.
The front features a distinctive hammered finish, with a deliberately irregular surface that reflects light and enhances the material character of the silver. The edge is defined by a double corded decoration, an element that gives the frame an elegant and refined appearance.
Stamping and attribution
On the back are the stamps 925, 356 FI and 10÷18 g.
The 356 FI hallmark relates to the Florentine silversmith Antonio Fallaci. The trademark registration dates to October 24, 1960.
International interest
Antonio Fallaci's production is documented beyond Italy as well: his jewelry and 925 silver objects have appeared on the antique market and at international auctions and catalogs, contributing to the presence of his work in international collecting.
This makes the frame particularly interesting for an international audience of 20th-century Italian silver collectors.
Conditions
Good overall condition relative to age and the nature of the object. The silver surface retains the characteristic hammered finish. Normal signs of wear and use are present.
