About the Item

Pair of amphorae in 800 silver and 24% crystal. The elegant 18th century style of the amphorae makes them suitable for a classic style home with prestigious and refined furnishings. The silver was made with the casting technique and then finished with a chisel. The shaped and hinged lid allows for perfect dosing when the contents of the amphorae are poured. An angel's face is depicted under the spout. The body of the amphora is in fine smooth crystal containing over 24% lead, handmade by the Mario Cioni glassworks in Florence. The base is always in solid 800 silver, raised from the support surface by 4 feet with a scroll design, typical of the Baroque period. The amphorae were made in Florence. Italy - in the silversmith's workshop of Renato Raddi for ARVAL ARGENTI VALENZA
