Tazza 1842

Henri-Baron de Triqueti's "Tazza" (1842) is a striking example of 19th-century French metalwork. The small, gilded bronze tazza, or shallow dish, features a detailed, engraved design, including a relief of a female bust in the center. The intricate base is adorned with stylized, intertwined serpents and an eye-catching blue cabochon stone. Triqueti's masterful craftsmanship and use of decorative motifs evoke a sense of refined artistry and historical inspiration.
