The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Italian silversmiths in the mid-20th century gained international recognition for creating detailed animal sculptures, using intricate chasing and engraving techniques to reproduce realistic natural textures.

These models are typically cast or hand-hammered from sterling silver, followed by manual chasing, engraving, and selective oxidisation to define scales, fins, and facial structures.

Authentic pieces generally feature stamped hallmarks indicating silver purity, country or city origin marks, and an incised makers signature on the base or lower fins.

Place the sculpture on a dark wood sideboard, marble mantelpiece, or glass display shelf where light can highlight the metallic surfaces and hand-engraved details.

Dust the item regularly with a soft, dry cloth and use a specialised silver polishing cloth sparingly, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can strip intentional recessed oxidisation.
