About the Item

A French Art Deco ewer or pitcher crafted from thick-cut glass and macassar wood with a stylised silver floral frieze. The piece was crafted by Lagarde & Fortin of 5 Rue Froissart, Paris which was operating between 1922 and 1928. The piece is marked with the French minerva mark for 950 silver purity and the maker's mark for Lagarde & Fortin. The heavy glass body presents with some fleabite chips to the edges, however these are not immediately noticeable and can only be seen when closely inspected. There are some minor losses to the varnish and finish of the macassar. The piece is watertight and could be used if desired, with care. A beautiful example of the beauty that the French were producing in the 1920s and 1930s. Marked - Minerva mark for 950 silver purity, as well as the L&F maker's initial inside a diamond shield. Measures - 30.5cm H

Czech Art Deco Coffee Pot in 800 Purity Silver

Czech Art Deco Coffee Pot in 800 Purity Silver

Located in Brisbane City, QLD

We love a good piece of Art Deco silver, and this coffee pot from the 1920s is an exceptional example. The pot is marked to the underside with the Czechoslovakian 800 purity silver mark for large articles which was used between 1921 and 1929, giving us an eight year period in which it was manufactured. The elegant octagonal body of the pot is slightly tapered and features a die rolled vegetable motif border toward the top. Unfortunately we have been unable to identify the maker's mark 'JH' which is stamped alongside the Czechoslovakian silver...

Located in Brisbane City, QLD

This rather elegant coffee pot was likely made in the United States during the second half of the 18th Century. Prior to restoration work in 2022 the underside of the pot had remnants of a hallmark 'NH', allowing us to attribute the piece to early American silversmith Nathaniel Helme who was working in South Kingston, Rhode Island between 1761 and 1789. The piece stands on a square footing and has a timber handle...
