The term tazza is Italian and is a wide but shallow saucer-like dish either mounted on a stem and foot, often made in stone and glass but this example in bronze.

Condition: The bronze with excellent colour and patina, the Sienna marble bases are very well preserved, there is a small half-moon shaped repair to one of them which is illustrated in the images.
