Elegant, hand-carved Florentine tabletop easel crowned with a beautifully detailed scallop shell crest, finished in luminous gold gilt. Crafted in Italy, likely Florence, this piece reflects the refined artistry and decorative tradition for which Florentine workshops are known. The shell is adorned with delicate hand-pounced detailing, radiating outward in fine dotted lines that catch the light and add subtle dimension. Ornate scrolling along the supports and a richly textured gilt surface further enhance its depth and old-world character. Both sculptural and functional, this easel is perfect for displaying a cherished plate, artwork, or book, bringing a sophisticated European touch to any vignette.
The dimensions given are for the easel standing. The shelf is 5.25" wide and .75" deep. Will be carefully packaged with plenty of materials to help ensure its safe arrival at its new home. Please message me if you have any questions.
