Gilt Art Nouveau Portrait Casket Double Inkwell WMF (Attrib.)
Germany, Circa 1900s
Attributed to WMF” Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik
A gilt Art Nouveau portrait casket double inkwell, attributed to the renowned Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik (WMF), stands as a museum-worthy example of WMF Art Nouveau design, from Germany in the early 1900s. With dimensions of 13 inches in width (including handles), 9 inches in depth, and 3 inches in height, this rectangular casket boasts an organic floral form that epitomizes the elegance of the Art Nouveau era.
The lid, adorned with a captivating female portrait in a landscape, exudes beauty with flowers adorning her hair. Opening the lid reveals a meticulously fitted interior, spanning 12 inches in width, hosting two 2-inch porcelain inkwells, a 3-inch rectangular catch-all, and an 8.5-inch wide oval pen rest. The casket, standing on intertwined tree motif legs and flanked by twin handles, showcases the mastery of WMF's design ethos. While unmarked, this exceptional piece is attributed to WMF. This Gilt Art Nouveau Portrait Casket is a testament to the era's elegance and attention to detail, making it a truly exquisite and unique find.
