Lucky haul for divers

Written by Karen Bryan

Fishermen diving for shellfish in the Firth of Clyde last month discovered a 19th century Italian sculpture by the Italian Rinaldo Rinaldi buried in silt.  The bust is believed to have been lost during a shipwreck 130 years ago.  It has been perfectly preserved and it estimated to be worth £45000.  However the fishermen will have to wait to receive a salvage award.
