About the Item

A beautifully proportioned malachite egg in richly veined shades of green and black resting on a neoclassical style brass base with three fish. The sculptural silhouette and naturally dramatic stone movement give the piece a quietly architectural presence — equally at home in a layered English country interior or a refined Palm Beach space. Carved from solid malachite and polished to a soft sheen, these eggs work beautifully styled atop a stack of books, on a shelf, or incorporated into a library or study vignette. The tonal coloration lends warmth and depth, while the classical form adds a collected, timeless quality. An elegant decorative piece for interiors that favor restraint, texture, and old-world influence over trend-driven styling. Dimensions: 6"W x 6"D x 8.5"H. With stand: 12.5"H Materials: Malachite, brass base Style/Era: Grand Tour / Neoclassical / Transitional, Late 20th Century Condition: Very good vintage condition Provenance: From the collection of Father John Mericantante, pastor emeritus of St. Mary Parish in Pahokee, FL.
