AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Vintage antique statuette depicting a Walrus, made in the second half of the 20th century (the 1980s) by the renowned silversmiths and sculptors Fratelli Magrino of Florence.
The piece stands out for the exceptional realism of the skin folds and faithful reproduction of the large tusks. The sculpture is covered with a 925 silver laminate with a net precious metal weight of about 13/16 gram, as certified by the official factory hallmarks clearly visible and imprinted on the back of the animal (factory mark "MAGRINO", "925" title and the silversmith’s identifying punch). The inner core is resin/polyester to provide weight and stability to the piece.
