"Hunter in Paradise", Art Deco Humidor in Cast Iron by Elmberg, Sweden
By Carl Elmberg
Located in Philadelphia, PA
Although Sweden is known for its furniture and artisanry in a stylized Art Deco manner, often characterized as Swedish Grace, it is not so well known that Swedish artists led the way in creating fine pieces from humble materials such as cast iron or pewter. This humidor with high-relief sculpture in cast iron by Carl Elmberg is a fine example. The figure of a nude male archer chasing a deer, accompanied by a female nude figure in a wooded, idyllic setting, exhibits a beautiful texture and deep color thanks to the material Elmberg chose. The piece was cast by the famed Näfveqvarns Bruk foundry, which in the 1910s collaborated with the Swedish Society of Craft and Industrial Design to sponsor a competition which encouraged new and modern designs by artists such as Anna Petrus, Erik Grate...

"Sur le Pont D
Avignon", Charming Art Deco Box Celebrating Traditional Song
Located in Philadelphia, PA
Although it has endured many scuffs and indignities, this extremely rare Art Deco box still charms, the figures on its lid playing the violin and dancing to the old children's tune of "Sur le Pont D'Avignon." The ancient bridge in Avignon, Provence has been the subject of song since the 16th century, but the song that is beloved today was first published in the mid-19th century. Here, the artist depicts a central fiddler flanked by two couples with elongated limbs, wide-brimmed hats and elegant dress. The sides of the box depict the wide arches of the bridge, with fish swimming in the water below. The exterior is covered with a paper printed in color lithography, and the interior is painted candy apple red. The scene is signed "Tolmer," perhaps Roger Tolmer...

Enamel Work, Munich Secession
By Ludwig Karl Maria Vierthaler
Located in Philadelphia, PA
Crafted by Ludwig Vierthaler for the Josef Winhart metalwork company in Munich, this gorgeous and singular lidded canister displays the bravura repoussé work that the artist is known for. Winhart hammered elaborate Secession-style swirls and geometric patterns into the sides and lid of this piece, and enriched the lid with midnight blue and ruddy brown enamels. The entire piece has a subtle hammered finish and a streaky patina that gives the surface great depth of color. Interestingly, Vierthaler spent years as a metalsmith at Tiffany and Company in New York...
