AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Silver-mounted cobalt blue crystal centerpiece, marked 813 silver Rococo revival, c. 1890–1910

A superb antique table centerpiece featuring a deep cobalt blue crystal bowl mounted in finely cast silver of 813 fineness. The mount and base are richly decorated in Rococo revival style, with flowing scrollwork, shell forms and opulent grape and vine motifs, symbolising abundance and celebration, a classic decorative theme in European silverwork of the period.

The bowl is executed in intense cobalt glass with a scalloped rim, subtly enhanced with traces of original gilt edging.
The contrast between the dark cobalt and the natural patina of silver creates a striking and elegant presentation.

The silver bears the hallmark “813”, indicating silver purity of 813/1000 — a standard historically used in Finland and other Nordic regions from the late 19th century onward. Additional marks include “DK” (likely the maker’s initials) and a partially legible round punch consistent with Nordic silversmith marks of the era.

A decorative and refined object of excellent visual presence, suitable for collection or interior display.
