Handcrafted in Arezzo, Tuscany, Italy during the 1970s to 1980s in solid 925 sterling silver, it features a fully working top hand crank mechanism that actually turns.

In late twentieth century Tuscan silversmithing, master artisan workshops in Arezzo produced kinetic scale miniatures of kitchenware, combining fine chasing with working mechanical movement in solid precious metals.

Carrying official hallmarks including the 925 sterling silver purity stamp and the Arezzo silversmith code, this detailed piece weighs 14.74 g. It offers an exceptional and interactive example of Italian micro silversmithing.
