Description
Silver writing set, European school, 19th century
Worked silver. Measures 14 x 35 x 23 cm. A writing set consisting of a central body with a bell and two side inkwells with openwork lids, topped with small sculptural figures, all arranged on a single base profusely ornamented with scrolls, gadroons, and classical motifs. The silversmithing demonstrates meticulous execution in the chasing and repoussé, with contrasts between polished surfaces and deeper decorative areas that enrich the interplay of light. The visible hallmarks guarantee the metal's authenticity and place the piece within 19th-century silver production, linked to the historicist taste and the European ornamental tradition of the 19th century. It is a functional and representative set, designed for both everyday use and display, reflecting bourgeois refinement and the technical quality characteristic of silversmithing of its time.
