Hi Paolo,
Very attractive example! thank you for sharing it. This example is quite interesting as it seems to be much lighter than the typical examples seen, though distinctly in form, and seems to be of course much more recent than the typical examples found which date usually mid to latter 18th c. Do have more on its possible provenance? All the best, Jim |

Hi Jim,
as You rightly wrote, my one should be end of 18th century. Unluckily the seller, when I got it, didn't mentioned the provenance. Paolo |

Jim,
sorry, I red now better what You wrote. The seller described it as "end of 18th century". (I don't know if I may mention the seller). Paolo |

Hi Paolo,
No not necessary to mention seller, just wondered more about any details on provenance but dealers seldom, if ever, provide such details. The attribution of 18th c. style would be appropriate. All the best, Jim |

Thank You Jim,
be patient because I'm not too familiar with English language, so often I mistake to write or I don't understand well all You explain. Paolo |
