AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful statuette depicting an owl; the head and legs are made of solid silver, the body is made of onyx, and the eyes are tiger's eye.

Excellent Italian craftsmanship from the second half of the 20th century.

The object, probably a unique piece created by a goldsmith or sculptor, is unsigned.

I guarantee the authenticity of the metal because it was verified by a goldsmith using the silver test performed with the appropriate acid.

The figurine is in good condition.
