Materials: Constructed using a weighted resin core over which a thin laminate layer of .925 sterling silver is bonded. It features hand-painted cold-enamel accents on the vest, patches, hat, and face.

Base: Mounted on a high-gloss black lacquered round base.

Authenticity Markers: The foil label traditionally found on the bottom reads, "L'oggetto Mida è una creazione in Argento 925‰ sbalzato e cesellato a mano da maestri artigiani" (Translation: The Mida object is a creation in 925 Sterling Silver, embossed and chased by hand by master artisans). You can also typically find the incised signature mark of the original sculptor, Mida S. (S. Barbieri), stamped into the silver near the clown's feet.
