<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jeff Drum, post: 1859542, member: 6444&quot;]Fixing and sorting, came across this piece that I&#039;ve had for a year or so. Bought it from a neighbor who had traveled to europe and the far east a lot for work and visited flea markets, but didn&#039;t remember where he had gotten this and could tell me nothing about it. I was attracted to the carving, but put it aside after I looked at it carefully and saw it was made of four pieces of stone (base, mid section, handle, and main reservoir with spout).</p><p><br /></p><p>Finally tried to find something similar, and only came up with a piece listed at Christies. That piece is clearly much more elaborate, but maybe someone has some knowledge about whether this was a &quot;thing&quot; in the 19th century? Anyone heard of Rosso and Giallo or seen anything similar?</p><p><a href="https://www.christies.com/lotfinder/Lot/a-rosso-and-giallo-antico-marble-oil-6137915-details.aspx" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.christies.com/lotfinder/Lot/a-rosso-and-giallo-antico-marble-oil-6137915-details.aspx" rel="nofollow">https://www.christies.com/lotfinder/Lot/a-rosso-and-giallo-antico-marble-oil-6137915-details.aspx</a></p><p>[ATTACH=full]243448[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]243449[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]243450[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]243451[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]243452[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]243453[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
