Art Nouveau Pewter Box or Candy Dish Signed J. Siguet, Early 20th Century
When nature graces the lid of a box...
Created by the sculptor and engraver J. Siguet in the early 20th century during the Art Nouveau period (1890-1910), this box or candy dish is entirely handcrafted in repoussé, polished, and chased pewter.
The lid of this box embodies the Art Nouveau style, where curves and floral motifs reign supreme. This charming box is permeated by the perfection of nature: arches, curves, and intersecting patterns form a particularly bucolic scene on the lid, featuring plant motifs with flowers resembling pine cones.
In very good overall condition, the box has survived over a century without major damage. There is some minor wear to the patina, but it remains very subtle.
Lovers of folk art from the Art Nouveau period and pewterwork, look no further than this candy dish or box by J. Siguet!
Fast and careful shipping to France, Europe, and worldwide.
