Taschner worked in the Jugendstil, or "youth style", an off-shoot of art nouveau. This wonderful, and rare, example of his work is a fruit chiller. The etched glass container would have cream and fruits, and the brass base would be filled with ice. The chiller would be placed on the sideboard and the hostess would serve the iced cream with fruits for the dessert course. Circa 1905. See less
