An exquisite bowl in natural coral and silver by Gabriella Binazzi, Italy circa 1970s. This piece perfectly embodies Binazzi's signature style, which marries the wonders of the natural world with the sophistication of fine design.

The bowl's focal point is undeniably the genuine coral specimen, whose intricate structure and texture radiate an organic beauty. Coral, an emblem of marine life, is a symbol of protection and transformation.

Complementing the coral is a silver-plated foot, rim, and handles. The silver elements, especially the stylized handles, add a touch of opulence and modernity to the piece. Over time, the silver has developed a patina—a gentle tarnishing that lends a vintage charm. For those who prefer a shinier finish, the silver can be polished to restore its original luster.

Gabriella Binazzi's passion for incorporating natural materials into her designs shines through in this creation. Known for her inventive use of materials like ostrich eggs and exotic shells, Binazzi's work transcends conventional design boundaries. This bowl is no exception. Its unique composition invites one to ponder nature's splendors and the artistry required to incorporate them into everyday objects.

The bowl's felt bottom remains intact and is most likely preserving the artist's stamp.

With its dimensions of 7.5” H x 12” W x 6.5”, this bowl makes a statement wherever it's placed, serving as a reminder of the ocean's vast wonders and the artistry of human creation. In owning a Gabriella Binazzi piece, you don't just have a decorative item—you have a narrative of nature and craftsmanship intertwined.
