The bowl features the following marks along the silver band which defines its narrowing towards the foot. These help us date the work: 1) a lozenge with the abbreviation of the province (MI); Roman fasces; the number 08. This was the mark in force after the promulgation of the law of 5 February 1934 n. 305, which provided for the use of a uniform mark for the identification of the silversmith and of the province. In this case it is the Milanese smith Eliseo Mangili during the period 1935-1944. 2) 800 without a border. Title in thousandths of silver. Eliseo Mangili was one of the most talented goldsmiths flanking Alfredo Ravasco...
