Antique Hammered Copper Box – Bucolic Scene with Putti - Period: 19th century.
Extraordinary antique copper box, finely handcrafted with hammering and relief casting techniques, depicting lively bucolic scenes inspired by the classical and mythological world.
The side walls are adorned with playful putti immersed in vineyards, with naturalistic motifs of vine shoots, leaves, and flowers that elegantly intertwine around the figures.
On the top of the lid, there is a rural scene with putti drinking wine from cups, set in a rural landscape with a country house in the background, enclosed by a rich floral frame.
The rendering of details, from the musculature of the characters to the expressions of the faces, demonstrates remarkable craftsmanship, probably from a French workshop.
The box rests on four turned feet, which give it elegance and stability.
The burnished patina, with slight traces of gilding, helps to enhance the reliefs and accentuates the three-dimensional effect.
Condition: Excellent overall condition with slight wear to the patina consistent with age.
Intact closure and hinges.
Ideal as a collector's item, jewelry box, or decorative element in classic and refined environments.
Material: Copper with burnished and gilded patina
Technique: Hammering and relief casting
