Silver Football

An exceptional life-size sterling silver football with gently hammered surface and skilfully detailed lacing. The ball is very tactile and we have made a bespoke ebonised stand so that the ball can easily be removed and handled. With silver marks including Minerva wearing a Greek helmet to indicate the Netherlands from 1906 onwards and a date letter 'M' for the year 1947. The Lion stamp indicates the quality of the silver as 925 sterling.
A rare and memorable piece of silver.

Part of our Curated Idea 'A Gentleman's Desk'.

Dimensions: 21.7cm/8½ inches (diameter) x 43cm/17 inches (height on stand).
