Offered by Emmanuel Redon Silver Fine Art
Silverware and Silversmith of the 19th and 20th centuries
This solid silver pot rests on a gadrooned pedestal base. The lower section of the body is decorated with chased appliqués set against a matte (stippled) background. The upper section features engraved ornamentation in the Bérain style, which is echoed on the neck and lid. The spout is accented by a classical-style female head, lending a sculptural quality to the piece. The hinged lid is topped with a finely crafted, knob-shaped finial. A wooden handle, enhanced by a chased silver mount, completes the composition harmoniously.
With its balanced proportions and delicate ornamentation, this vessel exemplifies French silversmithing from the late 19th century.
