This decorative shell comes from Italy and was manufactured in the 1970s. It is hand-formed and made of porcelain or high-quality faience. The surface is covered with a pearlescent glaze that creates soft rainbow effects in the light. Such shapes were particularly popular in the 1960s to 1980s and were frequently offered by Italian, German, and Spanish manufacturers as luxurious interior design elements. The shell can be used both purely decoratively and practically, for example as a bowl for sweets or small objects. Its iridescent surface highlights the organic shape particularly beautifully. The object is in its original condition; slight scratches and normal signs of wear may be present.
