A masterpiece of Italian mid-century silver-craft
Signed R. Robean s.r.l. – 950 grams
About the Designer: A Brief History
Creazioni Artistiche R. Robean s.r.l. was a boutique Italian atelier founded in the mid-20th century (active 1950s–1980s), specializing in handcrafted .925 silver decorative arts with whimsical, nature-inspired motifs.
Based in northern Italy, Robean drew from Venetian glass-working traditions but excelled in 3D embossed silver overlays on glass and mirrors.
Their pieces—trays, candlesticks, framed reliefs, and vases—blended Art Nouveau elegance with Rococo flair, often featuring organic themes like grapes and vines.
As a small-scale artisan (not a mass producer like Buccellati), Robean's work was sold through high-end European retailers like Horchow and remains prized by collectors for its tactile craftsmanship and scarcity.
This tray exemplifies their signature style, with deep-relief sculpting that demands skilled silversmithing.
Sticker Authenticity: 100% Confirmed Genuine
The original silver foil sticker ("Creazioni Artistiche R. Robean s.r.l., R. ARG. 925, Made in Italy") is the official maker's mark—a standard practice for Robean on polished undersides to preserve finish integrity.
Under Italian precious metals law (Decree 22/5/1970 n.354), "ARG. 925" is reserved exclusively for solid sterling silver (92.5% purity); plated items are legally barred from using it.
