Description from the seller
Fascinating and elegant antique oil cruet, a precious artifact of refined Italian silverware signed by the well-known silversmith Faccioli of Milan.
The piece consists of a solid, finely worked support structure in 800 silver (with the related antique hallmarks of the silversmith), enhanced by two elegant blown-glass bottles/flasks in a deep cobalt blue.
The stark chromatic contrast between the bright silver and the depth of cobalt blue gives this piece great elegance and a commanding presence on the table.
A striking decorative and table accessory, ideal for collectors of antique silverware and Milanese craftsmanship pieces.
