Antique Florentine Grand Tour Pietra Dura Blossoming Rose Flower Paperweight
About the Item
This antique paperweight is unsigned, but presumed to have been acquired during a Grand Tour through Italy, and dating to approximately 1880 and done in an Arts and Crafts style. This pietra dura panel is done with various types of marble and stone which has been masterfully cut and configured into a blossoming rose flower and a bud rose. The selection, mix and cut of the various materials results in a very realistic portrayal of the intended subject, showing depth and shadows. The paperweight has some lightly scratched numbers on the bottom and some remnants of a label.
