Italian Silver Narcissus Sculpture on Onyx Pedestal

Unavailable

Our beautiful sculpture of Narcissus after the ancient was finely sculpted and cast in .800 silver and mounted on a finely carved onyx stone pedestal, apparently in the early 20th century.  With the impressed marks "800" and lozenge that is heavily worn and not legible.  With exceptional details to the face, hands, pelt and shoes.  The finest and largest silver casting of this popular subject we have seen in our 20 years in business.  In good condition, with oxidation, scratches and scuffs.  There are a few chip losses to the underside edge of the onyx and a hairline.

Additional images forwarded upon request.
