The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this 19th-century alloy artifact, which represents the applied arts of Europe. The flagon itself is a testament to European decorative design, with its intricate metalwork and delicate chain that adorns its surface. Del Barba's mastery shines through in his ability to seamlessly blend functionality with aesthetic appeal, as this piece not only serves as a tableware item but also doubles as a stunning decorative object.
