Description from the seller

Charming vintage Italian set of two silver-laminated (Laminato Argento / Laminato AG) figurines: a detailed gnome with pointed hat, long beard and barrel, plus a cute elephant girl in a tutu skirt.

Details/measurements:

Set of 2 figurines – 925/1000 silver laminated

Elephant Girl: 41 g – approx. 4 × 4 × 5 cm (sticker present)
Gnome: 134 g – approx. 6.5 × 4 × 10.5 cm (hallmarks present)

Total weight: 175 grams

Comes with an organza pouch.

Hallmark Summary:
• Manufacturer: Ditta Brunelleschi di Brunelleschi Giorgio & C.
• Origin: Macerata (MC), Italy (Official Registry Mark: 26 MC)
• Material: Laminato (thick 925 silver layer laminated over a weighted resin/composite core).
• Authentication: The official post-1968 Italian polygonal registry plug features the symbol "Ag" (Argentum), which legally verifies the authenticity of the precious metal finish without requiring a separate numerical purity stamp.

Highly reflective polished finish typical of Italian decorative production from the 1970s–1990s. Hallmarks visible on the gnome.

Condition:
Good vintage condition with strong original polish and light age-related wear/patina consistent with the period. Ready to display.

Origin & period:
Made in Italy, late 20th century (circa 1970s–1990s), the classic era of Laminato AG / R. Argento-style decorative figurines.
