Drawing inspiration from Art Deco and Hollywood Regency aesthetics, the piece features a hexagonal form clad in richly figured burl wood veneer with deep, swirling grain. The sharp, architectural lines are masterfully emphasized by black-lined trim, creating a graphic contrast that highlights the wood’s natural warmth. It is elegantly finished with a textured metal pineapple finial—a classic symbol of hospitality—and elevated on small brass ball feet, lending it an air of refined, old-world charm.


Ideally suited for a fireplace mantel, entry console, or as a focal point in a library, this versatile vessel serves as both a functional lidded box and a standalone sculptural object. Measuring 7.75” wide, 6.75” deep, and 12” tall, its grand scale ensures a commanding presence in any room. The piece is in great vintage condition, displaying minor scuffs and surface character along the edges that present as an authentic, age-appropriate patina. Whether you are an interior designer seeking a textured focal point or a collector of fine wooden objects, this Silvestri urn is a timeless addition to any curated space. See less
