Silver and Objects of Vertu
Demand for silver objects of truly high quality is strong. The growing interest in exclusive silver pieces goes hand in hand with an increasing appreciation of our cultural heritage, and silver items are both practical objects and works of art. From sculptural masterpieces such as the drinking jugs of the Baroque period to the refined modern Scandinavian silver of today – true quality lies in the perfect balance of form, exceptional craftsmanship and material. We are seeking both historic prestige pieces, such as candelabra, drinking jugs and presentation platters, as well as modern functional items like teapots, spice containers, candlesticks and cutlery.
A selection of what our buyers are currently looking for:
Modern silver by Georg Jensen, Wiwen Nilsson, Johan Rohde, Sigvard Bernadotte, W.A. Bolin, Tapio Wirkkala, Sigurd Persson and others.
Older silver by Pehr Zethelius, Johan Lund, Jonas Ronander, Erik Månsson Schmidt, Petter Eneroth, Henning Petri, Gustaf Stafhell, Arvid Floberg and others.
