"Neptune and His Companions", Art Deco Silver Wine Coaster w/ Mythological Scene
About the Item
Bursting with joy and great energy, this sterling silver wine coaster features Neptune with his trident, riding a hippocampus, accompanied by teeming array of oceanic creatures, including mermaids, mermen, tritons and one of the four gods of the wind. The relief is bold, and the detail is fine, creating a scene that is arresting. The coaster was made by the famed GAB firm in Sweden, founded in 1868, which made a wide range of objects in precious metals and gems over many years. GAB's silver hallmarks are evident along the lower edge of the coaster. This piece was patterned after a sculptural relief by Carl Milles, Sweden's leading sculptor in the early to mid-20th century. The bottom is Bakelite.
