About the Item

This elegant cup dates back to the 19th century and was made in Italy. The bowl is made of Aswan bigio granite, characterized by its gray hue with black undertones, and black porphyry, a stone prized for its hardness and intense color. The gripping handles are made of bronze, adding a touch of luxury and color contrast to the bowl. The design of the cup is typically 19th-century, with neoclassical influences visible in the shape and materials used.
