PRESENTING: Vintage Italian STELIO-MOLA CAGLIARI ACCORDION PLAYER Signed on base in VGC
GENERAL DESCRIPTION: A distinctive piece of Italian pottery by Stelio-Mola
Cagliari. This accordion player is wearing traditional dress and is
beautifully sculpted and painted. Signed at the base. Due to the nature
of the piece, it is hard to tell if there is any damage (beyond slight paint wear), but I am pretty
certain not. Please study photographs carefully. 23cm tall.

About our descriptions
We
never want anyone to be disappointed with their purchase, so we go out
of our way to describe the items we sell accurately and fairly. As
certain things are subjective, we tend to prefer a "say what we see"
approach to the description and, if we are unsure of anything, we will
make that clear. We'll always try to point out faults but, not being
experts on everything, we may miss something - this is why we take a lot
of photos so that you, the buyer, can make an informed decision about
your intended purchase. If you spot an error in our listings, please do
let us know. Information helps us get better and we'd never take offence
by someone more knowledgeable getting in touch. If we state an item to
be from an era (ie "Victorian"), this will be a researched decision and
we will be certain that we are correct. If we aren't entirely certain,
we would use quantifiers such as "Victorian-like". If we state a
specific year (ie "1851"), that will be a certain decision. If we state a
timespan (ie "1850-1860") that would be a researched estimate. Likewise
with materials used (ie "Silver Plate" if stamped vs "Like Silver Plate
or White Metal" if not stamped).
What is QUIRKABILIA?
It
is a term I coined for my own eclectic tastes. Be it Victorian
antiques, 70s kitsch, 50s Danish or 20s Deco, I love it all and -
somehow - manage to make it work together. The one thing all my items
had in common was that they were quirky - and I felt that was the thing
that united them so they didn't clash on display. It dawned on me that
this type of collecting - something that isn't unique to me - deserved
it's own monicker. So I combined "quirky memorabilia" to come up with
"Quirkabilia". Please follow us, add to favourites, find us on Facebook
and bookmark quirkabilia dot com.
Please
examine the photographs carefully. We upload multiple images so do view
them all using the zoom function to take a detailed look. Most of our
items are true vintage or antique, so could show signs of
age and, occasionally, damage. Whilst we do our best to notice flaws and
mention them above, the images make up part of our description. If
there is anything you are unsure about, or if you want further photos,
please ask for them. Customer satisfaction is our number one priority: we want you to be happy so please ask before you buy as we are unable to accept returns.
