A burr walnut and silver poker set, Italy, circa 1960
A refined Italian poker set housed in a burr walnut case with a solid silver mounted lid, the surface engraved with a subtle geometric grid punctuated by card suit motifs. The hinged lid opens to reveal a complete poker set arranged within a fitted interior, reflecting the period’s emphasis on elegant leisure objects and fine craftsmanship. The warm figuring of the walnut contrasts effectively with the cool sheen of the silver, creating a balanced and sophisticated composition typical of mid twentieth century Italian decorative design. The piece would have been intended as both a functional gaming accessory and a decorative object for display in a domestic or entertaining setting.
