Presenting an exquisite sculptural rendition of Michelangelo’s David, masterfully cast in silver.

The complete piece weighs 342 grams

This is a registered Italian piece, bearing the hallmark sequence:
   •   “DAVID” — model identification
   •   “R” in a square — likely a date/assay letter
   •   “925” in an oval — confirming sterling silver purity
   •   *“FI 899 ” in a rectangle — denotes the silversmith registration number (Florence, number 899, with the star mark used post-1968)
   •   Inscription “Gr3 30” — likely reflecting internal weight or batch notation

Please study the hallmarks and photos carefully.

The high relief detailing on the bust — especially in the hair, facial features, and musculature — is beautifully rendered. The contrast between the warm silver and the dark base gives it a dramatic presence. It is in overall very good collectible condition, with some light surface wear/oxidation consistent with age (which can be polished or left for patina).

Good vintage condition. There is a visible crack up to the neck area, but the structure remains completely intact and stable. Surface patina and light wear are consistent with age, adding authentic character to the piece.
