Description from the seller
Exclusive Collection of 5 Works on Noble Metal - Silver and 22 kt Gold Leaf
These small boxes represent the classic gifts that were given in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s for various occasions in Italy, especially in South Italy, where they originate from. They were tokens of appreciation for occasions such as baptisms, weddings, and anniversaries.
They represent a part of local history and traditions.
Even in the representations themselves, they reflect local places and work.
Now considered obsolete as practices and techniques, they are becoming increasingly rare and difficult to find as objects.
A refined and precious collection composed of five miniature works of art, celebrating mastery in working with noble materials such as Silver 925/999 and 22-carat Gold Leaf.
This exclusive set features subjects of views, landscapes, and figurative scenes, all enclosed in elegant frames that enhance their brightness and microscopic detail. Ideal for the discerning collector or to enrich an environment with elements of high jewelry art.
