Beautiful hammered and silvered copper plate.
This hand-made plate from the late 19th century is a testament to Italian artisanal craftsmanship.
To create such a work, a very complex process was used; in fact, the plate’s decorations were made by beating the metal from the back, almost in negative, so that the final result could be seen on the front, the visible side; this process, besides the time it takes, requires brilliant and unique manual skill.
The copper plate was finished with silvering, of which today a large part remains.

Bellissimo piatto in Rame sbalzato e argentato.
Questo piatto realizzato a mano alla fine del XIX secolo e una testimonianza della maestria artigiana Italiana.
Per realizzare una simile opera è stata utilizzato un processo molto complicato da eseguire, difatti le decorazioni del piatto sono state realizzate battendo il metallo dalla parte posteriore, quasi in negativo, per poter vedere il risultato finale nella parte anteriore, quella visibile; tale processo oltre al tempo, necessità di una manualità brillante e unica.
Il piatto in rame era rifinito con una argentatura, della quale oggi ne rimane ancora una grande parte
