DESCRIPTION DU PRODUIT

This sculpture depicts a swan with an elegant curved neck: the body is formed from a tiger nautilus shell, while the head, long neck and finely feather-chased wings are made of gilt brass. The whole rests on an oval base.

In the taste of 1970s Italian decorative objects (Binazzi, Gabriella Crespi), it combines natural materials and brass.
