A charming and beautifully preserved Art Nouveau epergne, combining delicate opalescent glass with an intricately cast metal base. This poetic object captures the refined decorative sensibility of the early 1900s, when table décor blended elegance with utility. The upper element is a finely blown opalescent glass trumpet, its rim softly ruffled and its body worked with a subtle diamond texture. It rests on the central fitting and can be removed, allowing it to function as a graceful single-stem vase. Beneath it, the wide, undulating opaline dish...

A fine French art pottery centerpiece. By Delphin Massier in Vallauris. Created ca. 1900. Depicting 3 conjoined maidens cradling their faces with their dresses flowing into a wide trefoil undulating base. Marked to the base. (Perhaps a depiction of the goddess Hecate.) There is evidence of an old professional repairs. We note overpaint to sections of the figures and base. Not noted on the underside. (We're not sure what the extent of the repairs were. Given the lack of evidence of repair on the underside, we think it may have been chips or flakes to the top.) In any case, it displays very nicely. Simply wonderful French Art Nouveau design! Date: ca. 1900 Overall Condition: It is in overall fair, as-pictured, used estate condition with no chips or cracks. Condition Details: There is evidence of an old professional repairs. We note overpaint to sections of the figures and base. Not noted on the underside. (We're not sure what the extent of the repairs were. Given the lack of evidence of repair on the underside, we think it may have been chips or flakes to the top.) Otherwise, there is some crazing throughout, some light fritting or glaze loss around the edges of the base, some light scratches to the overpaint, and some bubbling and roughness in the glaze that appears to be a firing flaw around the edges. Otherwise, there are some fine & light surface scratches and other signs of expected light wear consistent with age. Maker: Delphin Massier Marks: Marked to the base for Delphin Massier Vallauris...

Exceptional centerpiece in silvered and gilded bronze, composed of a naiad riding a dolphin, supporting a chiseled shell decorated with reeds, adorned with the head of a river god on its bow and on which a winged love blows in a conch. The whole rests on a pedestal decorated with dolphin heads and cut-out leathers, ending with a porphyry base with molded steps. Historical and artistic context Centers and naves of tables are attested in France from the Middle Ages in order to present spices and other condiments brought from distant lands around the Mediterranean or from the trade of the Silk Roads. The importance of their presence on prestigious tables will be confirmed throughout the decorative arts, evolving during the 19th century in centerpieces, becoming a central element of decoration. Here we find a true virtuosity in the composition and representation of the human figure which is reminiscent of the greatest artists of the Italian Renaissance. Indeed, the fluidity of the lines of the naiad can be compared to the nymph of Fontainebleau by Benvenuto Cellini preserved at the Louvre museum and dated 1545, while the naturalist representation of the marine setting refers to the work of Wenzel Jamnitzer...
