-Origin: Spain.
-Manufacturer: ALCOR. A brand recognized for the quality of its silver-plated pieces.
-Period: approx. 1900-1930.
-Style: Historicist with Art Nouveau touches. The overall design evokes the opulence of Baroque and Neoclassical styles, especially in the foliate and curled forms of the arms and the fluted base. However, the clean lines of the central column and the volumetric treatment of the elements reveal the influence of the Art Nouveau aesthetic of its time.
-Material: Silver-plated alpaca (German silver, or Maillechort in France).
-Technique: The piece is crafted using a combination of silversmithing techniques, including casting for the base and arms, and detailed repoussé and chiseling for the decorative motifs, such as the leaves on the arms and the fluting on the base. The finish is a high-quality, mirror-polished silver plating.
- Hallmarks/Marks: The piece features excellent and rigorous hallmarking that guarantees its collectable quality:
*On the sole (reverse of the base): It displays the main hallmark of the manufacturer "AL⦾COR", accompanied by the indication "SPAIN" and the serial or lot number "2".
*On the body (central column): As an added value, a second heraldic hallmark or workshop mark is found in relief at the top of the column (marked with a yellow circle in the photo and shown in detail in the following photo). These types of secondary marks were used by master silversmiths of the period as a quality guarantee seal in the casting or assay of the thickness of the silver plating, confirming the premium character and the care taken in the manufacture of this object.
