Refined vintage miniature depicting a Caretta Caretta (loggerhead) sea turtle, handcrafted in Arezzo between the 1980s and 1990s in genuine Sterling Silver (925/000).
The sculpture stands out for its high level of detail, with the finely engraved shell and the flippers carefully modeled with naturalistic precision. The compact proportions and quality of the craftsmanship make the figurine particularly expressive despite its small size.
The 925 hallmark and the Italian silversmith code confirm authenticity and provenance from the renowned Arezzo silver district, internationally known for the quality of its sterling silver production.
An elegant and highly detailed animalier miniature, ideal for collectors of marine subjects or to enrich a collection of Italian silver figurines.
