AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

WMF Table Centerpiece in Rococo Style – Neo-Rococo around 1900 – silver-plated – with original glass dish – splendid

An exceptionally decorative table centerpiece from the WMF house (Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik), manufactured around the turn of the century.

The piece impresses with its opulent Rococo style, finely worked figure and richly decorated base. The dynamic presentation, combined with floral ornaments and flowing forms, gives the object an impressive, almost lifelike aura.

Particularly noteworthy is the original glass dish:
Finely crafted with an elegant wave shape and delicate floral etching in Jugendstil (Art Nouveau). The glass appears softly shimmering and forms a beautiful contrast to the substantial, silver-plated base.

A classic example of WMF’s high-quality design in Historicism, where Neo-Rococo and Art Nouveau harmoniously unite.

Details:
• Manufacturer: WMF
• Era: circa 1895–1910
• Style: Rococo / Neo-Rococo with Art Nouveau elements
• Material: Metal, silver-plated
• Dish: Glass, finely etched (original)
• Condition: age-appropriate good, with typical signs of use

An impressive collecting piece and at the same time an elegant eye-catcher for any table or display cabinet.

Ideal for collectors, lovers of antique table culture, or as an exclusive decorative object.
