SALE Art Nouveau Lily Silverplate Trumpet Vase

Silver : Silverplate

 

This is a striking Art Nouveau silverplate trumpet vase with a single Lily on the front. The flower is very detailed and appears to have been formed in silver and then applied to the front of the vase. The maker/silversmith is unknown, as the base is only stamped "Silver on Copper". The vase is a very sturdy, solid form with no dents, dings or creases or visible scratches. It does, however, have wear to the silver finish, mostly on the base. It stands 10" in height with a top diameter of 4 1/4" and a base diameter of 4". As is, it's a beautiful old piece. With some re-silvering, it would perhaps be even more amazing!

Please note: This vase is not crooked in any way. For some reason, when I photograph these shapes, they don't appear to stand upright. It's just the perception in the photo!
