In the heart of Italy at the beginning of the 20th century, the art of silversmithing reached new heights of refinement and elegance. An extraordinary example of this craftsmanship is represented by this 800 silver centrepiece, composed of two distinct but harmoniously complementary pieces:
- Double-handled amphora, adorned with two dragon-shaped handles, symbols of strength and protection. The body of the amphora is finely chiselled and embossed with intricate floral decorations, which evoke the beauty of nature. At the center of the amphora, two green hard stone cabochons catch the eye, adding a touch of luxury and mystery.
- Chiseled and embossed plate with floral decorations that recall those of the amphora, creating perfect visual harmony. The edge of the plate is worked with a linear geometric pattern, which gives a sense of balance and precision to the overall design. Further enriching its beauty, the plate features four green hard stone cabochons, arranged to create an elegant contrast with the floral decorations created in the central part.
Marked by the "800" hallmarks and a probable silversmith's coat of arms, which attest to its authenticity and quality.
