Pair Of High-quality Ewers/decanters In Solid Silver And Crystal, Dating From 1890
Artist: Vd
Two exquisitely crafted Rococo-style decanters from France, dating from the 1890s. Made of 950/1000 sterling silver, they bear the Minerva head hallmark. Each decanter is engraved with the silversmith's mark "VD" and features three individual hallmarks on the silver, attesting to its quality and origin.
Their design testifies to the exceptional skill of the craftsman. The crystal body, elegantly shaped in a spiral, rises fluidly from the base to the neck. The perfect fusion of glass and silver creates a refined and delicate effect, resulting in perfectly balanced proportions and graceful contours. The slender, delicate handles complement the impeccably hinged lids, illustrating casting and polishing techniques of exceptional quality.
These imposing decanters, each 29 cm tall and weighing a total of 2.36 kg, represent the pinnacle of French silversmithing at the end of the 19th century. These porcelain plates are of exceptional quality, finely crafted and elegantly designed, providing the perfect finishing touch to any refined table setting.
