AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

DESCRIPTION:
Refined decorative sculpture signed by the famous Italian sculptor Auro Belcari, depicting a female figure in period attire of classic/Victorian taste, seated with an open book in her hand and flanked by a child.

The piece is made in finely detailed metal with a 925 sterling silver coating/plate, as evidenced by the stamp incised on the base. With time and natural surface wear, the sculpture reveals fascinating warm and coppery reflections from the underlying substrate, imparting a vintage patina of striking aesthetic impact.

The statuette is mounted on a solid turned and polished wooden base. At the bottom is the original label of the era Italian distributor ("Aurora - Fabbrica Bomboniere").

Details and Specifications:
- Artist: Auro Belcari (signature on the base)
- Material: 925 silver-plated laminate (stamped) on wooden base
- Era: 1980s / 1990s (second half of the 20th century)
- Origin: Italy
- Condition: Good overall condition, with a natural and charming patina of time and slight signs of wear on the plating that reveal the tone of the metal underneath.
