AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Decorative figure of a musician angel, made of 915/925 silver with gilt details, depicting a celestial angel sounding a fanfare, a traditional symbol of the triumph of good over evil and spiritual victory over the Apocalypse.
The sculpture has a delicate, serene expression, complemented by outstretched wings and a golden trumpet, creating a composition rich in religious and spiritual symbolism. Figures of this type were used both as devotional decorative objects and as ornaments in classic and Christmas interiors.
The piece retains silver hallmarks stamped 915, partially visible due to the passage of time. A chemical silver test was also carried out, with a positive result for silver of approximately 925/1000.
The figure shows traces of the original gilding in various areas, giving it an attractive vintage appearance and an authentic period patina.
Weight: 136 grams.
Measurements:
Height: 9 cm.
Length: 6 cm.
Width: 6 cm.
Good condition for its age, with normal signs of use and wear to the gilding consistent with the passage of time.
An elegant collectible piece, ideal for lovers of religious silver, angel figures, and spiritual decorative objects.
