Description from the seller
Centerpiece / Fruit bowl in crystal and silver plate – Italy, first half of the 20th century
Elegant centerpiece on a stem, produced in the first half of the century, characterized by a refined blown-crystal bowl with rich geometric decoration and a delicate, finely worked silver plate mount.
The crystal, enhanced by a multifaceted pattern that captures and magnificently reflects light, is highlighted by a delicate perforated band in silvered metal that underscores its elegance. The base, with classic lines and richly decorated with floral motifs and channels, gives the piece balance, prestige, and a strong presence on the table.
This object represents a perfect example of Italian taste in the first half of the twentieth century, when the quality of materials and the care of finishing were essential elements in creating items destined for the most elegant settings.
Ideal as a centerpiece, fruit holder, or refined decorative element, it easily fits both classical environments and contemporary contexts, where it becomes a true focal point thanks to the crystal’s brilliance and the refined patina of the silver-plated metal.
Dimensions

* Diameter: 21 cm
Conditions

The item will be carefully packed with professional materials to ensure maximum protection during transport and shipped with trackable shipping throughout Europe.
