Hand-Carved Marble Plate with Stone Intarsia in Velvet Case

Description

This enchanting round marble plate is a masterpiece of traditional craftsmanship. Every detail is meticulously carved and polished, with a beautiful, openwork lace edge that gives an airy impression. In the center, a symmetrical pattern of colorful stone intarsia, known as pietra dura technique, blossoms, where small pieces of gemstones or semi-precious stones are inlaid into the marble surface. The colors are vibrant with hints of red, green, blue, orange, and golden yellow, as well as shimmering mother-of-pearl-like accents.

The marble is white and smooth, and the intricate pattern with perforations and inlays gives the plate a unique character. The back is smooth and simple, highlighting the detailed work on the front. The plate comes in an elegant, dark blue velvet case with metal clasps, which protects the beautiful decoration and makes it an ideal gift or storage solution.

The condition is excellent for its age, with minimal signs of use. The velvet case is also in very good condition, contributing to the exclusive feel.
