Table Box Enamel on guillochè with “paillons” in pure gold on the upper circle S

About the Item

Round table box in 925/1000 sterlin silver gold plated with fired enamels, with “paillons” in pure gold on the upper circle, fine fired enamelled miniature with hand-painted floral image by the painter Bruno Corsari, striped enamelled border vertical. Napoleon III French Empire style. Dimensions: diameter cm. 7.5 cm high. 5.5. Weight gr. 367. Designed by Franco Salimbeni in 1967 and produced in Florence in a few specimens, with different colors and miniatures, in the Salimbeni company headquarters with manual workmanship by skilled artisan artists with thick slab and large reinforcements suitable for withstanding numerous high-fire enamelled firings at about 750°<800° C. The paillons processing, now almost disappeared, and a rare technique recognized as a craft. Several layers of enamel are applied to the object, baked one by one in the oven. Afterwards, the designs cut out of thin gold leaves, the paillons foils, are applied one by one by hand to form the desired figure. These sheets are then in turn coated with a new layer of enamel, also baked and translucent, also baked and translucent, to protect and fix the paillons motif.
