Art Nouveau Centrepiece

About the Item

This ravishing Art Nouveau silver plated centrepiece is decorated with butterflies, flowers, and budding tendrils, and retains the original applied patina and cobalt-blue-glass liner. Designed by the German sculptor Albert Meyer, it bears the stamp of the maker, the Württembergerische Metallwarenfabrik, the Tiffany of Mitteleuropa. Celebrated internationally, this firm exhibited in all the world’s fairs, maintained showrooms in Württemberg, Berlin, Vienna, and Warsaw, and zeroed in on the Anglo-Saxon market by publishing an English-language catalog, which featured this centerpiece, and building a London headquarters, known as Wurtemberg House.
