Антикварная ваза для фруктов Victor Saglier

An elegant antique fruit vase of the late nineteenth century by the famous Parisian jeweler Victor Salier. The object is made of jewelry alloy covered with a layer of silver. The relief form of the vase is harmoniously complemented by restrained classical decor in the form of shells and floral ornaments on the sides. Near the edge there is a corresponding mark with a sailboat and the initials VS (Victor Saglier). Born in 1809 in France, Victor Saglier was a jeweler and manufacturer of silver-plated table settings of high quality. From 1870 he ran his own workshop in Paris. After his death in 1894, his two sons Eugene and André took over the business, changing the name to Saglier Freres and lasting only until 1947.
