In the auction, a piece of exceptional prestige for collectors of art silverware and automotive history: the masterful reproduction of the FIAT 3 ½ HP from 1899, the first car ever produced by Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino.
This imposing model is made entirely in solid 800 silver. It is not a plated object, but a piece of intrinsic value with heavy weight, characterized by high-quality casting.

Actual Weight: 975 grams (Almost 1 kg of solid silver).
Specifications and Authenticity:
Stamping: The mark "800" is present and clearly visible under the base (see macro photo).
Details: Meticulous handcrafted work that includes the helm/steering wheel, the spoked wheels, and the finely chiselled hood. The base bears the original emblem "FIAT 1899".
Conditions:
The item is in excellent condition with a splendid natural patina of time that certifies its authenticity. The structure is solid and rests on a decorative base cast in metal.
Investment:
With a weight of almost a kilogram of 800 silver and these substantial dimensions, the model represents a secure investment in precious metal, combined with the added value of the collectible rarity of the FIAT subject.
The lot will be shipped with professional reinforced packaging and fully insured and tracked shipping with MBE.
