About the Item

Magnificent sculptural serving tray designed by renowned Italian artist Franco Lapini, crafted in silver-plated metal in the shape of a reclining ram. This stunning piece combines art and functionality, representing the refined Italian style of the 20th century. The ram's body serves as a removable container or tray, ideal for presenting food, fruit, or as a decorative element on a table or sideboard. The meticulously carved details of the fur and horns, rendered with the masterful craftsmanship characteristic of Lapini's workshop, stand out. Marked on the base with the inscription "Franco Lapini – Made in Italy," this piece is an iconic work of Italian design, perfect for both collectors and those seeking a unique and sophisticated centerpiece. Franco Lapini was an Italian goldsmith based in Florence since 1963. Franco Lapini, its creator, trained at the Istituto D'Arte Internazionale di Porta Romana before opening his first workshop. Lapini was deeply interested in 15th-century Renaissance metalworking techniques, and the company continues to use very traditional techniques with highly refined and durable materials. Today, the company has created spectacular pieces for palaces and galleries that are exhibited around the world.
