This large Grand Tour marble tazza from the area of Florence, has a wide, shallow bowl that rests upon a separate, gracefully tiered pedestal.  It's serpentine arms unfurl from the rim with an effortless, sculptural sweep — an elegant gesture that feels both architectural and organic. The marble’s cool surface reveals delicate veining, the kind prized by Florentine artisans for its quiet luminosity and sense of permanence.

At the center, a relief of a sun goddess radiates across the basin, her features rendered with the calm assurance of classical mythology. The carving forms a subtle focal point, drawing the eye inward as light drifts over the marble’s polished contours. It is the kind of detail once admired by travelers on the Grand Tour, who sought objects that embodied the artistry, history, and poetic spirit of Italy.

This tazza offers that same transportive quality today — a piece that enriches interiors grounded in timeless design, European interior style, and curated home décor. Whether placed on a console, dining table, or within a library setting, it introduces a sense of ceremony and quiet grandeur. The blend of material integrity, mythological imagery, and Italian craftsmanship makes it a striking addition for collectors and those who value objects that elevate a room not through ornament, but through presence.
