Allow yourself to travel back in time to the Neo-Baroque era with this exquisite fruit bowl from the early 20th century. A masterpiece of the silversmith's art, made from 800 silver, with an openwork, round and opulently decorated body. The ornate design with rocailles, scallops and delicate rose motifs transports you to a world of elegance and beauty. An unengraved cartouche in the centre offers space for personal accents, while the wide rocaille handles promise not only practical use but also visual pleasure.
The highlight of this magnificent piece is the precisely fitting insert of a crystal glass bowl, which creates a symbiosis of functionality and aesthetics with its wavy edge and filigree olive cut. The central star cut sparkles in the light and skilfully showcases the fruit arranged in it. Manufactured by Bruckmann & Söhne from Heilbronn for Krischer, the purveyor to the court from Düsseldorf, this piece is a testament to outstanding craftsmanship and an unmistakable sense of style.
With its history and outstanding quality, this fruit bowl is not just a utilitarian object, but a true collector's item that adds a touch of grandeur to any interior. A testimony to Bruckmann & Söhne's passion for historicising shapes and decorations that has survived in excellent condition. An enrichment for any collection and an eye-catcher that will live long in the memory.
