Alabaster decorative panel dating from 1850–1900, with a Florentine lily motif, originating from Florence in Tuscany, measuring 40 cm high, 36 cm wide, 4 cm deep and weighing 8 kg, in good condition with minor signs of age and stains.
Description from the seller
Refined sculpted decorative slab in alabaster, characterized by an elegant Florentine lily motif, symbol, par excellence, of Tuscan tradition and Medicean identity. The quality of the material, with its soft and luminous surface, gives the object a sober yet highly decorative presence, capable of enhancing classical, historic, or eclectic environments.
The execution, even in its essentiality, returns a strong heraldic appeal, making the piece interesting both as a furnishing element and as a historical testimony to the mother city of the Renaissance. The patina and the slight traces of time emphasize its authentic charm.
Originating from a residence near the famous Villa Medicea di Poggio a Caiano, in the Florentine hills, the slab carries with it all the charm of a placement tied to a historical and territorial context of great value. This origin increases its collecting and decorative interest, suggesting use in representational settings or in interiors with a Tuscan taste.
The object shows normal signs of time, compatible with age and use. Natural irregularities of the material, small abrasions and defects consistent with the workmanship and conservation over time are visible, which do not compromise its overall aesthetic legibility.
Dimensions: 40 cm height x 36 cm width. Weight 8 kg.
