Peruvian Modernistic Sterling Silver Coffee Service Set

About the Item

A sterling silver coffee service set consists of six pieces: a coffee pot, a chocolate pot, a covered sugar bowl with a serving spoon, a creamer and a round tray. Made in Peru circa mid to second half of 20th century, maybe 1970-80s, this modernist set features a wonderful shimmering hand-hammered surface with carved-wood handles that mimic natural tree trunks. The finials on the lids of the three hallow wares and the spoon handle were cast in the form of a pelican bird, a very charming motif. The largest coffee pot measures 9.5" H × 10" W × 6.5" D and the tray measures 1" height × 14" diameter. The list measurement is for packing only. There is two impressed marks: one under the chocolate pot and one on the stalk of the spoon '925 Peru'. as shown. All pieces have been tested as sterling silver and the total weight is about 89.2 ozt.

  • Alan Adler Sterling Silver & Walnut Modernist Hand Wrought Serving Coffee Set
    Located in New York, NY
    This elegant sterling silver and walnut coffee set was realized by the legendary designer Allan Adler in the United States circa 1950. The set features a coffee pot, sugar bowl and spoon, and creamer. Created in sterling silver, this set showcases Allan Adler's signature aesthetic- a kind of traditional modernism applying a pared down minimalist perspective to classical design elements. Here the silhouettes of the pieces look traditional but feature idiosyncratic details that clearly indicate their modernism- as fresh looking today as when it was made. The hand rubbed walnut handles are hewn in an amorphic shape that flares asymmetrically at its end. It is inescapably a modern form. It is pared, however, with historical language (from Art Nouveau for instance) that roots the pieces in a more traditionalist place. They feature stylized vine motifs on the finial of the coffee pot top and leaf motifs that trace the circular bases. The protuberant bodies created in lustrous sterling salver taper at each end. This is an outstanding example of Adler's practice that represents his inimitable aesthetic at its very best. It is sure to delight collectors of his work, as well as those with a penchant for beautifully crafted and special objects. It is signed "Adler Sterling" on the base and is in excellent vintage condition. Adler began his career as an apprentice in 1938, designing silverware and inspired by the design of the early 1900s specifically Art Nouveau. His name became associated with Hollywood glamour in the early 1940s. he was commissioned to design mini-Oscars for Academy Award winners, crowns for Miss Universe and Miss USA, and silver bowls and candlesticks for celebrities and dignitaries. During John F. Kennedy's presidential campaign, Adler was commissioned to create a silver coffee urn...
