Description from the seller
Rare hallmarked silver censer, probably Italian work, late 19th century
A classically shaped piece, richly decorated with stamping and chasing: stylized vegetal friezes, vertical gadroons, and a base adorned with lanceolate leaves. The fittings are embellished with floral motifs and Baroque-style brackets. The censer is suspended by three twisted chains, each ending in a decorative medallion.
The main legible hallmark appears as 800 in a horizontal cartouche.
The other hallmark is too faded in your photo for certain identification.
Good overall condition; signs of wear, minor workshop imperfections, interior oxidized as expected; solid hinge and functional opening mechanism. No major deformation.
Photos are an integral part of the description of the objects and complement their presentation. They allow you to assess their condition and characteristics. Please examine them carefully before any commitment.
The item will be carefully packaged and shipped with a tracking number to ensure fast and secure delivery.
Happy bidding
