Asprey
The company was established in England in Mitcham, Surrey, in 1781. Founded as a silk printing business by William Asprey, it soon became a luxury emporium. In 1841, William Asprey's elder son Charles went into partnership with a stationer located on London's Bond Street. In 1847, the family broke with this partner and moved into 167 New Bond Street, the premises Asprey occupies today. From its central London location, Asprey advertised 'articles of exclusive design and high quality, whether for personal adornment or personal accompaniment and to endow with richness and beauty the table and homes of people of refinement and discernment.' An early specialty was dressing cases. Asprey crafted traditional cases and designs, mostly in leather, suitable for the new style of travel ushered in by railways. As the business grew, the company acquired manufacturing facilities and hired silversmith, goldsmith, jewelers and watchmakers. In the 1920's, commissions poured in from around the world, from American millionaire J. P. Morgan to potentates such as the Maharaja of Patiala, who commissioned a huge teak travelling trunk for each of his wives, in which each trunk was fitted with solid silver washing and bathing utensils with waterspouts of ornate tiger head and lined with blue velvet. Asprey cigarette...

DaumNancyFrance Sign 1925 GlassApplications LeadCrystal ArtDeco Sculptural Vase
By Daum
Located in Chicago, IL
Vase sign: Daum Nancy France. Evidenced by this Daum sculptural colorless blown and hot-shaped lead-crystal heavy vessel vase, the finest irreproducible artistic works in the history of the French glass maker featured ornamental thick glass applications, while its most in-demand ArtDeco-period pieces were made between 1925 and 1935 with very few major pieces remaining in private hands and even less without damage. As a significant gift acquired from Don Jacques Daum in 1950, a similarly shaped, constructed and sized circa-1925 vase with "stylized foliage" motif is in the collection of the French Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris as Inventory #36309. A later-produced clear vase with a similar application motif at the rim, but in a "Champagne" bubbled style, is in the published book about the Leo and Irina Esterkin acquisitions from 1910-1940 titled Daum Art Deco Glass--A Private Collection.
On our prime-condition antique vase, applied transparent glass is styled in high relief into a flowing undulating motif that evolved from Daum's Art Nouveau foliage designs. The angular and curvilinear shapes of this vessel epitomize the bold vases, bowls and sculptures for which Daum is best known. Its tiny pencil-etched signature on the side near the bottom reads "Daum (plus the Lorraine-cross symbol) Nancy France", which resembles some published signatures since 1925.
Revealing how ahead of its time this particular design was--after WWII in 1945 coinciding with the revitalization of the French glass industry--Daum used...

Art Deco 1925 Japonism Enameled Travel Clock in 18kt Yellow Gold with Diamonds
Located in Miami, FL
A travel clock designed by Cress Arrow Co.
An incredible travel-desk clock, created in America during the art deco period by the jewelry and luxury watches makers Cress Arrow Co., back in the 1925. This fabulous flamboyant piece is a truly magnificent work of Art Deco jewelry art and has been crafted with very elegant Japonism patterns in solid yellow gold of 18 karats with accents in platinum for the setting of the diamonds.
The piece is decorated in both sides with abstract images of the Japan national tree of the cherry blossom, entirely embellished with applications of blue, black and rose enamels.
It is fitted with a slider mechanism to discover the dial and stand in the desk. The movement is Swiss, mechanical hand winding. The dial is silver with platinum arabic numbers and arrows, signed Swiss.
Japonesque, Japonism or Japonaiserie are French terms that refers to the popularity and influence of Japanese art and design among a number of Western European artists during the late 19th century, the art nouveau and the art deco period.
Diamonds: The platinum arabic numbers and the arrows are with 144 old European rose cut diamonds, 1.08 carats, E/F color, VS-1 clarity.
Weight: 109.35 Grams, (70.09 Dwt).
Measurements: 57 mm by 45 mm by 9 mm (2.24 x 1.77 x 0.35 Inches).
Hallmarks: Stamped with the maker's mark monogram, the reference serial numbers, the gold assay marks and signed, "CRESSARROW 18K 63086-086".
The Cressarrow Company
Was originally formed as a jewelry manufacturer in Newark New Jersey in 1890 as the N.E. Whiteside & Co and was succeeded by Whiteside and Blank in 1903. The firm manufactured 14 carat brooches, scarf pins, sleeve buttons, studs, and bracelets, accented with enamel. Later they produced high quality jewelry in platinum. The United States Patent and Trademark Office registration indicates that the C with the arrow through it was first used for brooches, cuff-buttons, pendants, necklaces and rings by the original firm beginning in 1890. In 1911, the company was awarded the exclusive licence to sell the expansion bracelet that had been invented in Germany. The venture became immediately successful and Whiteside and Blank devoted more and more time to the watch business, becoming the first in the United States to make wrist watches for ladies...
