Naveta. Silver in its colour. Salamanca, Spain, 1824-1850. With contrast marks and text. Silver vessel in its colour with a circular, stepped base decorated with ready mouldings, a turned axis or base with lines, and an elongated upper part, with a lid on one side and a protuberance on the other side of the piece (note the damage here). The hallmarks on the edge of the upper part (under the hinged lid) and on the foot place the production of this naveta in Salamanca, during the years of the faithful hallmark known as Bernabé Hidalgo (apparently documented in 1840, considered by some to be active in the 18th and 19th centuries; there is evidence of a Bernabé Sahagún Hidalgo working as a hallmark in Salamanca between 1824 and 1850). The other hallmark could not be identified. Also note the legend “Billaberde” located on the foot of the piece. Weight: 454 grams.
