AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant 925/1000 sterling silver vase by Portuguese silversmith Manuel Alcino, featuring a refined modernist design and a beautifully balanced form.
The vase has a tall, gently flared body decorated with elegant vertical curved ribs, creating a subtle spiral effect. Both the upper rim and circular foot are finished with a finely worked twisted-rope border, adding texture and definition to the polished silver surface.
A contrasting light-coloured ring separates the body from the foot, providing an attractive decorative accent to the design.
The piece bears the 925 silver mark together with the maker’s mark, visible in the photographs.
A sophisticated example of contemporary Portuguese silverwork, suitable both as a functional vase and as a decorative collector's piece.
