The Silver Donkey

A charming vintage continental European donkey figurine crafted in solid 800 silver. The miniature sculpture is finely modelled with expressive upright ears, a defined muzzle, textured mane, gently shaped body and carefully detailed legs and tail. Despite its compact size, the figurine has a pleasingly substantial weight and an attractive sculptural presence. The donkey is stamped 800, confirming the continental silver standard. An unusual decorative piece for a curated silver collection, it would also make a thoughtful gift for an animal lover or collector of vintage silver miniatures.
