A scarce and elegant 19th-century Rococo-revival style silver-plated table mirror by WMF (Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik), dating to around 1885. This piece bears the first WMF mark, placing it among the earliest works of the world-famous German foundry. WMF was created in 1880 following the merger of Daniel Straub’s Geislingen factory and Alfred Ritter’s Esslingen factory, and quickly became renowned for its fine quality electroplated wares. The mirror is richly decorated in lavish Rococo motifs, with scrolling garlands and a charming winged cherub descending on a rope.

Antique Ridgway Rococo Urn Vase LARGE Early 19th Century RARE Circa Approx 1840

Posted by admin On September 20, 2024

Large and impressive Ridgways Rococo urn/vase dating to approximately 1840. This is a rare vase that I only managed to identify with the help of the online Ridgway pattern books and a very knowledgeable friend. The vase is of a distinctive form and decorated in a highly unusual way with a background of a colourful chinoiserie pattern but including Chelsea birds, a profile of what appears to be a Roman Centurion flanked by Mythical figures Sphinx? L it is rather crazy and every time I look I spot something new. The vase does have a chip to one “arm” of the handle but it’s not glaringly obvious. Base diameter 13.5cm.

Rare Early 18th Century Pewter Antique German Rococo Soup Tureen Dated 1723

Posted by admin On March 22, 2023

From the first quarter of the 18th century a large proportion of German pewter was made in rococo, then neo-classical, followed by Empire styles. The forms most suited to rococo were candlesticks, sauceboats, teapots, coffee pots and tureens. Most of these were of fine quality metal and workmanship, and the rococo style continued until the end of the 18th century, long after it was considered to be fashionable (1725 to 1760). The rococo style was never used by English pewterers; the Dutch and French used it sparingly. Only the Germans experimented with this style to any large degree. The eagle touchmark on this fine soup tureen suggests it comes from Villingen, Federal Republic of Germany. Covered soup tureens in the rococo style such as this, are extremely rare and are coveted by serious pewter collectors. Because they were costly, few were made. As a two piece set, far fewer survived intact for hundreds of years. This fine example is a large soup tureen with vertical lobing, measuring 14 ½ ” in width (from the outer edge of each handle) and 12″ in height. The base opening of the tureen measures 10 ½” by 7 ½”, and is engraved with the owner’s inials “GSK” and the date “1723”. The bottom of the base contains three oval maker’s marks (unidentified), the center mark containing an eagle and the numbers “2 3″. The quality of the metal is exceptional and the soup tureen weighs a full 7 pounds. There is a solder repair, as shown in the photos. This tureen holds a full gallon, and I believe it might be a “presentation piece”, adding greatly to its value. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Metalware\Pewter”. The seller is “pewtermania” and is located in this country: US.
