AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

An elegant pair of English table frames in embossed sterling silver, crafted between the late 19th and early 20th centuries, in full Art Nouveau taste with Rococo Revival influences. The frames feature richly embossed relief decoration with putti, floral scrolls, vegetal motifs, and ornamental cartouches of striking dramatic impact. The quality of the embossing and the depth of detail give the pieces a refined and important presence, typical of high-end English silverware destined for aristocratic residences of the era. The present British hallmarks attest to British manufacture with a London assay mark. The frames retain their elegant original backing lined in velvet on the reverse, an element that further contributes to the authentic charm of the whole. Sold exclusively as a pair. Total lot weight: 754 grams. The weight includes the wooden inner structure, the glass, the rear support, and the sterling silver trim of both frames. The measurements indicated in the listing refer to the larger frame. A decorative pair of great charm, ideal for collectors of English silver, interior designers, or classic and elegant settings.
