A rare and collectible piece of Italian design. This set of two sterling silver napkin rings was designed by Gabriele De Vecchi — one of Italy’s most celebrated silversmiths and designers, whose work is held in the permanent collection of MoMA, New York.
Elegantly formed as wide sculptural cuffs with a fluid wave silhouette, each ring is accented with a small hardstone detail — one set in pale quartz, one in deep red carnelian — adding a quiet stroke of colour to the polished silver surface. A piece that sits as comfortably on a shelf as it does on a dinner table.
Fully hallmarked .925 sterling silver with Gabriele De Vecchi signature and silversmith’s mark “665MI”. Presented in the original fitted linen box.
Details:
• Designer: Gabriele De Vecchi (1938–2011), Milan, Italy
• Material: .925 Sterling Silver, hardstone accents (quartz & carnelian)
• Hallmarks: 925 + Devecchi signature + “665MI” silversmith’s mark
• Dimensions: H 3.5 cm | W 6.8 cm | D 4.5 cm (each)
• Weight: 117g (both pieces combined)
• Condition: Excellent — barely used, minor surface scratches consistent with age, no dings, cracks or repairs
• Era: 1980–1990
• Includes original fitted presentation box
A serious collector’s piece from one of Italy’s finest postwar designer-silversmiths.
