A fine late 19th century Alabaster table top with intricately moulded brass banding beautifully detailed with flora and fauna. Alabaster, a fine-grained, translucent stone, has been used for centuries in art and architecture due to its delicate, luminous qualities. Italian artisans, particularly from the regions of Tuscany and Volterra, have honed the craft of working with alabaster, creating stunning pieces that highlight the stone's natural elegance.
