About the Item
Strikingly composed and beautifully glazed, this large wall charger -- designed with display in mind -- features the idealized Italian family as resolute, strong and loving. The setting is clearly agrarian, and the father in particular is looking into the distance with steely-eyed fortitude. The mother and son are reaching toward each other, bringing a note of love and mutual support to the scene. Reminiscent of the WPA art that was being made in America in the 1930s, this piece suggests the same kind of idealized social realism in Italy. The charger is signed on the reverse, though the name has not been deciphered.

"Salome with Head of John the Baptist", Unique Art Deco Charger, Ericson
By Estrid Ericson
Located in Philadelphia, PA
Elegant and beautifully crafted, this superb example of Swedish Grace artisanry was made by the famed Svenskt Tenn workshop in Sweden, which produced a wide range of artisan-designed and made sculptures and home goods, often in pewter, as here. Svenskt Tenn was founded in 1924 by Estrid Ericson, who brought together an astounding array of artists such as Josef Frank and Anna Petrus, many now world-renowned, to create a wide range of objects. Ericson herself was known for creating works in pewter with patterns or designs incised in the metal, so this piece is attributed to her artistry. Here she depicts Salome, holding the head of John the Baptist...
