Elegant pair of shells in fine white Carrara marble, made in Renaissance Medici style and form. The shells have a gadrooned body and are supported by a raised base, which adds a touch of refinement and majesty. A peculiar characteristic of these shells is the presence of a hole in the center, designed to allow water to drain away in case they are used as vases for plants. This functional detail blends harmoniously with the classic and refined aesthetics of the shells, giving them an aura of timeless elegance. Tuscan manufacture from the second half of the 18th century. Measurements: H x DM x Base L 36 x 50 x 21.5cm
