AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Oval basket in gold-toned perforated metal, with floral decoration and side handles in Art Nouveau style.

Elegant decorative metal basket with a gilded finish, characterized by particularly elaborate pierced work. The oval structure features a refined lattice weave, enriched with ornamental motifs of scrolls, interweavings, and small relief flowers that embellish its entire profile.

In the center there is a solid circular surface, while the two side handles, shaped into scrolls, give the object a pleasing symmetry and a distinctly Art Nouveau look.

Unknown producer, certainly European, probably from Central Europe.

From the decoration motif it is possible to date the tray to the first quarter of the 20th century, circa 1900-1925.

Dimensions: 6.5 x 36 x 22.5 cm including handles

Excellent overall condition.

Seller's Story

My name is Riccardo. I recently graduated in Art History from the University of Florence and I am passionate about porcelain. From tableware to artistic vases, from figurines to tea and coffee sets, I am fascinated by the mastery and creativity of great artisans and designers who manage to shape this fragile material, transforming a rough mass into masterpieces with a story to tell. During my years at university I began to become interested in the history of nineteenth- and twentieth-century tableware; today, every day, I deal with prestigious porcelain pieces that always have something to say to me and to those who purchase them. I love that every day I can discover more about the objects I find while traveling around Italy, always learning something new. I always try to convey to my clients this passion I have for the objects I sell, certain that each of them has a story to tell: that of the creator, that of the one who preserved it, and that of the person who will give it a new life.
