EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a stunning Florentine pietra dura plaque, adorned with an intricately crafted parrot perched on its perch. The plaque is displayed on a table alongside an exquisite Etruscan krater vase, a vase of vibrant flowers, and elegant ewers.

The combination of Roman-inspired elements such as the Etruscan krater vase with delicate floral arrangements creates a harmonious blend between classical artistry and natural elegance.
