Charming VTG Italian Silver Cherub Putto Angel Holding Fish Bell
Presented is a charming little Italian silver bell. The handle of the bell is
beautifully cast in the form of a cherub or putto holding a fish, curiously
enough, while the bell is decorated with a classical palmette border. The bell
is not especially loud, but rings sweetly.
This piece is in excellent condition. The details of the design are nice and
crisp, and the bell rings well. No breaks and no repairs.
This piece is stamped with an Italian government registered maker's mark as
well as 800 for the purity of the silver.
The bell stands about 2 5/8 inches tall.
The bell weighs 31.7 grams or 1.1 regular ounces.
