This is an excuse to show my Goldberg collection - at least that's what I think they all are! The larger blue pair, although incredibly worn, show the technique where the floral design is part of the mould and the silver enamel applied to it. I will resist the temptation to "touch up" for the moment and enjoy the careworn look.
8, 11, 11.5 and 14cm tall.
Although in Art Nouveau, I am sure they were produced into the 30s.
Very nice, Ian! I always like the acorn motif, but I really the amethyst vase on the far right - I have never seen that style before (fritillaries, I think?) They look terrific together.
Could be snakes head fritillary.
they are lovely Ian. You are getting quite the collection there...
