AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Art Nouveau Flatware – Complete 5-piece Condiment Set – Silvered metal and glass – France, ca. 1900
Description:
Beautiful Art Nouveau-era condiment service (oil-vinegar cruet) featuring the organic, sinuous lines characteristic of this artistic movement. The central mounting, delicately worked, displays a stylized vegetal handle that adds a lightness typical of late 19th-century creations.
Set details: The set consists of a silvered metal frame with 5 positions, containing:
• 2 large blown-glass carafes with their original stoppers for oil and vinegar, height 20 cm
• 2 matching glass receptacles for salt and pepper, height 5 cm
• 1 matching glass receptacle for mustard, height 6 cm
Technical characteristics:
• Style: Art Nouveau / Belle Époque
• Origin: France
• Marking: Inscription "DÉPOSÉ" beneath the base, confirming model protection at manufacture
• Materials: Frame in silvered metal and coppered brass, blown glass
• Dimensions: Overall height 30 cm, circumference 19 cm, weight 1.775 kg
Condition:
The piece is presented in its original condition, complete, a rarity for an ensemble of this fragility.
• The frame: Shows an authentic patina with some silvering wear in places, revealing the underlying metal and reinforcing its antique character.
• The glassware: The carafes and small bottles are in good condition. No cracks on the bodies of the vessels (some limestone traces at the neck where the stoppers join).
