A large silver and brass violinist figurine, handcrafted in Italy during the 1970s/1980s by Etruria Gioielli. This striking piece is made in genuine Continental Silver and is hallmarked 800 which stands for Continental Silver (800/000), together with the Italian silversmith code. The figurine has a strong sculptural presence, with a refined silhouette and a detailed pose that instantly communicates movement and musical expression.
Made in Arezzo, Tuscany, one of the most important Italian silver districts, this miniature reflects the traditional quality and precision of figurative silverwork produced in the area. A very interesting detail is the contrast of materials: only the violin (the smaller feature) is made out of brass, adding a subtle warm tone that visually separates the instrument from the silver body.
Even better, the original tag is still attached, a rare bonus that enhances collectibility and confirms its vintage retail identity.
Never seen on Vintage Silver Boutique.
A perfect piece for collectors of Italian silver miniatures, music themed objects, or anyone looking for an important solid figurine with real character and craftsmanship.
