respira @nettsiebaby 🤣😂 I didnt either. Though when I found him in that little antique market in Barcelona I knew I had to have him. I named him Carlo. Sadly I am having to downsize and am having to make some hard sacrifices.

nettsiebaby @respira if I had expendable income he would be mine. Carlos's travels should be documented

robin62m @respira this is absolutely gorgeous and if I had extra money like this, it would be mine! Good luck with it and where did you get it? I also look for antiques, but I’ve never seen something this fantastic.

edtrbuza My young daughter is an artist and loves drawing and painting wildlife. Today, she expressed an interest in someday learning how to design and make jewelry. Crazy for this to pop up in my feed. I showed her. She was amazed by how much time and effort was put into designing this so intricately. It really is a beautiful work of art. Thank you for sharing!! Wish I had the means to buy it!

sandradvx This is just so beautiful! But for that price though, I think I need more details. An artist name, a date created, etc…

quinn2938 he's out of my budget but I'm so curious about how he was made I just have to ask, is he posable or in a fixed position? I'm a jeweler and any way I can think to make him would be so hard but he seems articulated and that's just mind-blowing

myvintagefriend I think you're seriously undercharging for this silver articulated shrimp! I believe it is a Buccellati Hand Made Sterling Silver Shrimp, valued up to $12k! Use Google lens and see what you can find out. With the right key words, you can make a lot more money on this incredible handmade Italian piece.

shnnlynne @myvintagefriend If so, it would be marked with the artists name

Oct 20Reply

myvintagefriend @shnnlynne I don't know, but you can do your research. I took a screenshot of your photo, ran it through Google Lens and that's how I found the likely identity.

Oct 20Reply

shnnlynne @myvintagefriend Sure, google is a great place to start if you’re looking for info. I am very familiar with Buccellati and my comment was that ALL of his pieces are marked.

Oct 20Reply

myvintagefriend @shnnlynne Well, I'm sure you know way more about it than I do! I was just astonished by it, had to learn more, and that was the first I heard of the company. Your piece is so fabulous, whoever made it.
