Art Nouveau Aesthetic Novelty Toast Rack
Art Nouveau Aesthetic Novelty Toast Rack
Sale Price:€105.00 Original Price:€120.00
This is a special and rare silver plate novelty toast rack.
Created by Henry Wilkinson at the height of the Art Nouveau period, it is made in the design of two lily leaves curling their way around to form a five bar toast rack with an accompanying handle.
The rack sits sturdy on three balled feet and the condition is fantastic. There is some minor wear to the base where toast has rested for decades to reveal some brass beneath. In our opinion, not a distraction from the beauty of the piece.
A great acquisition for any enthusiast.
