AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Original WMF relief jug from the era around 1900 / early 20th century.

Made by Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik (WMF) from silver-plated Britannia metal. Fully marked on the bottom with WMFB, ostrich mark, “as” and “I/O”. The markings indicate Britannia metal, an antiqued silver surface, and silver plating.

Luxuriously sculpted relief decoration with putti/child representations, roses, waterfowl, and floral motifs. The naturally designed handle integrates into the richly relief-decorated design.

The surface shows the characteristic dark patination with wear to the silvering from age and use, and, in places, warm metallic through-glimpses. Not magnetic.

Dimensions: height approx. 8.2 cm, diameter approx. 6.5 cm, width with handle approx. 8.5 cm.
Weight: approx. 200 g.

Age-appropriate condition with visible patina and wear; please note the detail photos as part of the condition description.

Secure and carefully padded shipping.
