A vintage object with a refined naturalistic charm, a chestnut shaped box handmade in Italy between the 1970s and 1980s in genuine solid silver.
A surprisingly charming small silver piece, where the organic form and the irregular surfaces of the chestnut are rendered with great artisanal sensitivity. The compact proportions and the well balanced volumes turn a simple subject into an elegant object, pleasant to look at and to use.
Never seen on Solo Argento.
An ideal piece for collectors of vintage Italian boxes, lovers of naturalistic silver, or for anyone looking for a usable antique object that is discreet yet full of character.
