At the auction, significant works created between the 18th and 19th centuries by important master silversmiths such as John Wakelin & William Taylor and Paul Storr, suppliers of the English Royal House and the exceptional nucleus of 18th century French egoists and coffee makers, from the collection of the well-known Milanese antiquarian Antonella Bensi who made the historic gallery in via Santo Spirito a precious treasure trove of art objects and silverware. The lots enrich the significant representation of European silverware.

But it is the important Italian production that is the protagonist with seventeen eighteenth-century coffee makers including an elegant example of the Genoese Baroque dating back to the sixth decade of the century and a rare example of eighteenth-century Cagliari production.

To this we add the important Turin tureen richly decorated with allegorical decorations of the hunt and the exceptional compendium of four Genoese doubles dated 1763 to end with the elegant travel necessaire that belonged to Countess Elisa Finocchietti (Pisa 1821 - Florence 1870), intellectual and woman of spirit that was appreciated as a painter and miniaturist, coming, together with the sumptuous Crucifix in precious ivory, silver and tortoiseshell made in Palermo in 1765, from the Cesari collection in Rome.

The nucleus of seven puerpera cups is also interesting, a well-wishing gift used by the nobility for new mothers with which they could regain strength and energy with rich dishes and meat broths, among which a 19th-century Turin example stands out bearing the crossed arms of King Vittorio Emanuele I of Savoy and his wife Maria Teresa of Austria Este.
