Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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.

A tazza is a wide, shallow decorative bowl elevated on a stem and foot, popularised during the Neoclassical and Regency eras. Designed primarily as ornamental display pieces, they were often produced in pairs to adorn sideboards and mantelpieces.

Regency tazzas were commonly constructed using a combination of dark patinated bronze and gilt bronze, also known as ormolu. The contrast between dark oxidized bronze surfaces and mercury-gilded brass or bronze mounts is characteristic of the period.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-chased gilding details, heavy solid cast bronze construction, and natural wear to original gilded surfaces. Threading on original assembly rods usually displays early hand-cut pitch rather than modern standardized machine threads.

A pair of tazzas can be positioned symmetrically on a fireplace mantelpiece, console table, or sideboard top to create visual balance. Their classical proportions and contrasting metallic tones complement both traditional schemes and minimalist modern backdrops.

Clean surfaces gently using a soft, dry lint-free cloth or a natural bristle brush to remove dust from detailed chasing. Avoid chemical polishes, abrasive materials, or liquid cleaners, as these can strip original patination and damage mercury gilding.
