"The Boar Hunt" - Embossed, pierced, engraved and silvered copper stand

"The Boar Hunt"

Embossed, pierced, engraved and silvered copper stand

Resting on the ground by means of a turned base with a truncated cone shape sloping upwards, it has the "plate" with a doubled and riveted edge, and the body embossed and elegantly historiated with fretwork.

The same is made up of a central round part delimited by a beaded frame, and centered by a shield which in ancient times bore, in all probability, the family coats of arms.

The shield is surrounded by two successive circular bands: the first sumptuously decorated with animal figures: four dogs and two wild boars chasing each other through the vegetation; and the second elegantly decorated with a succession of perforated movements, to form small arches, which intersect each other.

Height 12 x 12.6 cm (base diameter) x 34 (plate diameter)
