AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Charming double metal dish with a vegetal decor, in the Art Nouveau style with its flowing lines and naturalist motifs.
Signature “Derriey” visible under the base (see photo), attributed to Charles Derriey (1808–1877), renowned French engraver, sometimes nicknamed “the Raphael of engravers.” The piece was made by his foundry a few years after his death (between 1890 and the early 1910s), a date at which "Derriey" ceased to be a brand.

Mention “Made in France” also present, a guarantee of quality French production.
While best known for engraving, his name is associated with decorative metal objects, bearing witness to a recognized artistic know-how.
Ideal as a catchall, a jewelry bowl, or a decorative antique object.
Elegant floral decor
Beautiful patina
French manufacture
Distinctive item
Condition: good overall with signs of age (see photos)
Material: régule

Length: 14 cm
