Prized in decoration since the 19th century, malachite owes its reputation to its concentric deep green patterns, unique to each stone. This large Italian bowl from the 1960s is a generous demonstration of it.
The bowl, made entirely of polished malachite plates assembled together, draws wide green swirls veined with black. The rim is circled by a fine brass edging, which underlines the circumference of the piece and closes the composition.
Superb condition: no chips on the malachite, the stone keeps all its polished shine; the brass shows a beautiful golden patina, consistent with its age.
At 27 cm in diameter and 5 cm high, this large bowl stands out on a coffee table or a console, as a centrepiece or a catchall tray. A spectacular mineral object, between decoration and natural curiosity.
It joins our selection of 1960s Italian catchall trays.
