Place of Origin: Italian
16th Century Spanish or Italian Baroque Wrought Iron Nails and Furniture Mounts
Located in Stamford, CT
Group of 16th century (or earlier, possibly Gothic) Spanish or Italian wrought iron furniture mounts. These hand-wrought bosses and nails show incredible workmanship. These would have been used to decorate - and to structurally hold together an early chest or casket. The four geometric bosses beautifully made, eight ounces each without the nail! The nails are works of art in themselves, with their heavy geometric heads.
Also two round bosses with the nail integral to the piece, one a mushroom form, the other like a parasol. And a single hand-wrought double sided nail. Great group of early iron.
Provenance: Frances Pratt, Writer, Artist, Collector. New York City.
Approximate sizes:
4 bosses 4.625 inches square 11.75 cm
Round bosses 3 inches diameter the larger 2.5 the smaller 7.6/ 6.35 cm
4.5 in high 11.4 cm
5 nails...

17th Century Italian Bronze Horse Bit Boss
Located in Stamford, CT
Italian Baroque raised round bronze boss with spiral decorated dome framed by a border with arabesques. These hat-shape bit bosses, probably inspired by Ancient shield bosses excavated at the time, were very popular in Italy in the 16th and the early 17th century.
Bit bosses were ornamental elements decorating both sides of a horse bit. The Metropolitan Museum has several examples of this type of bit boss in their collection. I have added a photo of a curb bit from the Met's collection showing how the bit boss was used as decoration on either side.
Ex collection: Piero Tozzi Piero Vito Tozzi was an antiquarian, artist, restorer, professor and art dealer who had galleries in New York and Florence. Tozzi specialized in Italian decorative arts, sculpture and paintings. Tozzi’s collection included, among other items, Fra Filippo Lippi...

Handcrafted and Inlaid World War II Italian Nutwood Tank Design Cigarette Box
Located in Lisse, NL
Unique cigarette box celebrating the end of WWII in Italy in 1944.
If you have a passion for rare wartime antiques then this handcrafted cigarette box celebrating the end of the second world war in Italy could be yours to own and enjoy. Apart from very well made, it is also made of some beautiful woodtypes such as the solid nutwood cigarette holders and the stunning burl veneer on the front and back. Whomever created this piece must have been both very impressed and truly grateful to see the American / allied tanks roll into his town or village. With smoking still very popular amongst soldiers back in those days, we feel this work of post-trench art could very well have been presented to one of the soldiers as a token of appreciation and gratitude. This box still opens and shuts perfectly and apart from one replaced canon on the front, this unique box could not be more original. The beautiful wood inlay on top too is in excellent condition and the gun and hatch on top of that can be rotated. This one of a kind box makes a great deskpiece, but no matter where you decide to have it on display, the beauty and history of this antique talking...
