This collectible 925 sterling silver piece depicts a seashell atop a starfish, with an incredible richness of textures and forms. Every detail, from the ridges of the shell to the starfish's suckers, has been meticulously crafted, evoking the naturalist style of the mid-20th century.
The hallmark indicates that it is an Italian piece from Milan, stamped in 1981, guaranteeing the authenticity of the Italian silver. It is highly prized by collectors and vintage design enthusiasts.
Although its shape resembles a gravy boat, we believe it's too small for individual use. This piece is ideal as an ornamental or collectible item, perfect for display cases, curio cabinets, or as a nautical touch in coastal decor. It can also be used as a container for rings or other very small objects.

What you are buying (important)
We sell antique and vintage items. These are not new or recently manufactured products. Due to their age and previous use, they may show signs of wear, marks, scratches, minor losses, or variations inherent to the passage of time. These characteristics are part of their nature and are not considered defects. We recommend carefully reviewing the photographs, as they show the actual condition of the piece. If you need to confirm a specific detail before purchasing, please contact us.
Photos and color
The photographs are taken under artificial light. For this reason, the color may vary slightly depending on your screen and lighting. If color is critical for you, we can send you additional photos taken in natural light to get as close as possible to the actual color.
Patina and cleaning
Many pieces develop a patina over time. We don't remove it, as it's a natural process that can take decades to form and, in many cases, contributes to the piece's aesthetic value and character.
If you decide to clean or polish, do so carefully and with the material in mind. The buyer should make this decision, as cleaning can affect the appearance, authenticity, and, in some cases, the value. If you need cleaning instructions based on the material, please contact us and we'll guide you.
