Part of our “K-OVER Art” collection, this champagne cover is a tribute to the allure of pirate tales. Expertly chiseled on 999/°° pure silver K-OVER, it depicts a captivating narrative: a hidden treasure, a menacing sea monster, a majestic sailing ship, Poseidon, the
god of the sea, and a mysterious magician—all pivotal characters in a classic pirate saga. It invites you to craft your own adventure.

This cover is the artwork of Lorenzo Foglia, a master goldsmith from Florence. The crafting process, which spanned several months, utilized advanced techniques of repoussage and chasing. It’s worth noting that the cover was sculpted from a single piece of silver, adding to its intricacy, especially given the absence of a reverse side. The meticulous detailing and precision evident in the chiseling further underscore its value. As time progresses, discovering such unparalleled craftsmanship will undoubtedly become rare.
