METAL AND GLASS CLARET JUG OR PITCHER. POSSIBLY WMF, GERMANY. CIRCA 19...

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.

COFFEE SET. PORCELAIN. ROYAL VIENNA, AUSTRIA, EARLY 20TH CENTURY.

Coffee set. Enameled porcelain. Royal Vienna, Austria, early 20th century. With marks on the base of pieces. Two broken cups. Enameled porcelain coffee set consisting of a tray, six cups with their plates, sugar bowl with lid and jug with lid. Although the classicist influence on the piece is clear (golden garlands, shapes, plant elements, colors, etc.), it is necessary to indicate the inspiration for the tray in the oil painting by George Sheridan Knowles painted in 1908 and titled “Summer Pleasures on The "River." Royal Vienna is known as a certain style of porcelain related to the porcelain made in Vienna (Kaiserlich privilegierte Porcellain Fabrique) founded in 1718 by Claude du Paquier, an official of the imperial court of Vienna. It was closed in 1864, but its name was recovered by the Vienna Augarten Porcelain Factory in 1923.
