This large silver miniature figurine of a seal was handcrafted in Arezzo, Tuscany during the 1970s or 1980s. Hallmarked 800 for Continental Silver (800/000) and marked with the Italian Silversmith Code, it represents a rare design within the tradition of Italian silver miniatures.
Though Tuscany is inland, marine-inspired subjects have a meaningful place in its decorative silverwork, reflecting Italy’s wider coastal culture. The seal symbolizes adaptability and playfulness, bringing a dynamic charm to collections centered on animal-themed silver art.
