This Art Nouveau champagne bucket, dating from 1910, is cast in silver-plated metal with a gleaming silver finish. The rounded vessel is decorated with raised floral relief motifs and organic whiplash tendrils, rising to twin handles shaped as stylised female busts with flowing hair. A gently flared rim tops the body, which stands upon a pierced footed base formed from intertwined stems and leaves. The bucket measures 40 cm high, 34.5 cm wide and 29.5 cm deep. Positioned on a sideboard top, this piece serves as a distinctive decorative vessel or champagne bucket in a dining room, living area or kitchen. The organic form and sculptural details reflect the fluid lines characteristic of the period style. The silver-plated surface provides a reflective finish that complements traditional and contemporary interiors alike.

FAQs

Art Nouveau metalware, prominent between 1890 and 1910, is defined by organic forms inspired by nature. Common motifs include flowing whiplash lines, sinuous plant tendrils, floral blossoms, and stylized female figures.

Pieces from this era were commonly produced using electroplated nickel silver, Britannia metal, or pewter bases finished with silver plating. Intricate components like handles and reliefs were achieved through casting and hand-finishing.

Authentic pieces usually feature stamped maker marks on the underside or rim, such as the WMF ostrich mark, EP for electroplated, or specific letter codes indicating silver plate thickness and gilding details.

An antique silver wine cooler serves as a decorative centerpiece on a dining table, a drinks trolley accent, or a functional vessel on a sideboard during entertaining.

Clean gently using a specialized silver polish and a soft cotton cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals or abrasive pads that can strip the silver plating. Ensure the item is dried thoroughly after use to prevent tarnishing and water spotting.
