Fratelli Mannelli - Sculpture

It belongs to the famous Bestiario (Animal Bestiary) collection designed and produced by Fratelli Mannelli in Signa (Florence) during the 1970s. Like many pieces in this series (which included ducks, elephants, and porcupines), it was designed both as a decorative desk sculpture and a functional paperweight or letter holder (portacarte). Hand-carved from Rapolano travertine marble (travertino di Rapolano), a porous Italian limestone known for its natural beige tone, distinct veins, and organic texture As a hand-carved stone animal from the 1970s Italian bestiary collection, its stylized snail form beautifully bridges raw earth naturalia (travertino) and human craft, making it an ideal modern addition to a Wunderkammer. #travel diaries
