Capodimonte Table Bell – Putti Decor – Italy ca. 1950–1970
Ziggy's Collection
Elegant hand-painted table bell from the Italian Capodimonte tradition, featuring a romantic embossed putti decor.
The bell depicts two naked cherubs in a classic landscape, surrounded by gilded accents and subtle pastel shades. The combination of relief work and fine brushwork gives the piece a distinctly Italian appearance.
The underside is marked with R. Capodimonte and R.S. Marino, along with the number 3183. This indicates production within the post-war Capodimonte tradition (c. 1950–1970).
A characterful vintage object with distinct decorative value.
