Click to view additional photos
This is a charming small sterling silver and mixed metal condiment jar by well-known American silversmiths Dominick & Haff of New York in the Aesthetic style. The entire surface of the urn-form body has been chased with a stylized foliate motif, and with applied mixed metal decorations of various scattered leaves and branches, attended by a single crane-like bird. In particular the leaves are very artistically rendered, and the asymmetrical arrangement makes this emblematic of the Japanese taste. The jar is stamped under the base with the maker’s mark of Dominick & Haff, a date stamp of 1879, pattern number 276 F, and the word “Sterling.” The jar measures approx. 1 3/4" high, and is in very good condition overall. The small-scale of this charming vase makes it a beautiful accent piece and a lovely example of mixed metal silver.   Price: $550.00   Stock #AV977
