Jug. Glass, silver metal. Possibly WMF, Germany. Around 1900.
With contrast markings (handle).
Jug with a transparent glass body decorated with geometric elements, a circular base, a globulated body and a high cylindrical neck, which features an ornament with a “ce” handle on the top in silver metal. This has a decoration of architectural and plant elements of a marked classicist and Renaissance character, in addition to having a protome with horse’s front legs next to the upper edge of the lid of the jar. The marks, present on the outer edge of the handle, would surely link the piece to the Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik or WMF. In 1853, Daniel Straub and the Schweizer brothers established a metalware factory called Straub & Schweizer, which already achieved recognition at the London Exhibition in 1862 and established the first shop in Berlin in 1868. In 1880 they merged with Metallwarenfabrik Ritter & Co., forming the Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik (WMF), which continues to operate today.
Weight: 0.9kg. · Size: 16x13x30 cm
