Offered by Emmanuel Redon Silver Fine Art
Silverware and Silversmith of the 19th and 20th centuries
A superb ovoid ewer resting on a finely chased foot decorated with water leaves. The polished body is adorned with an elegant frieze of palmettes inspired by antiquity.
The handle, decorated with chased foliage, is formed by a finely sculpted swan's head, whose beak forms the spout and terminates in an applied female head, an emblematic motif of the Empire style, here executed with great finesse.
A piece with pure and balanced lines, perfectly illustrating the refinement of early 19th-century French silversmithing.
