AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Refined vintage decorative duck figurine in 925 silver worked in filigree and adorned with blue enamels.

A three-dimensional workmanship composed of numerous filigree elements forming the plumage, with enamel details in intense shades of blue.

On the base the 925 hallmark is clearly present.

The type and decorative technique are attributable to Asian production Chinese Export, highly appreciated by collectors of Oriental silverware, cloisonné and vintage decorative objects.

Features:
* subject: duck / duckling
* material: stamped 925 silver
* workmanship: filigree
* decoration: blue enamel
* style: Chinese Export / Asian art
* type: decorative figurine for collection
* color: silver, blue and darkened tones
* era: probably 20th century
* 925 hallmark visible
* second hallmark present but not fully legible

The object shows patina, oxidation and normal signs of time, particularly visible on the silver parts, which emphasize its vintage character. The enamels are overall well preserved considering the age.

The photographs show in detail the aesthetic state of the object and constitute an integral part of the description.

Splendid collectible piece, ideal for enthusiasts of 925 silverware, Oriental art, filigree, cloisonné and Chinese Export objects.
