Set of Midcentury Italian Handmade Brass Shell Shaped Bowls for Metal Art, 1970s

About the Item

Amazing midcentury set of three shell shaped bowls in solid brass. This delightful piece was designed in Italy during the 1970s for Metal Art PD. The peculiarity of this article is that, as can be seen from the lower Italian words in the engraving, stating "handmade", the piece is entirely hand-wrought. More precisely, the brass has been finely hand hammered until getting its unique shell shape and signed by Metal Art pd. A set of elegant centrepieces, ideal for completing a mid-century living room with a maritime touch. The two largest shells measures (cm): depth - 20 width - 19 height - 4.5 The small shell measures (cm): depth - 14 width - 13 height - 4.
