A complete 14-piece Art Nouveau silver-gilt tea service featuring a naturalistic design of finely crafted flowers and foliage.
The pieces display relief and chasing work.
The openwork spatulas are decorated with stylized brugmansia flowers, while the spoons form veined leaves with attached scrolls, in the decorative style of late 19th and early 20th-century Art Nouveau.
The openwork handles and sinuous floral lines are characteristic of Art Nouveau naturalistic designs.
The set is preserved in its original case.
