ABOUT PRODUCTID 1881
This Art Nouveau wine jug, produced by J. P. Kayser Sohn in Krefeld between 1901 and 1902 and attributed to Hugo Leven, exemplifies the refined craftsmanship of the early 20th century. The smooth, transparent glass body displays a subtle green gradient that intensifies toward the base, creating an organic effect characteristic of the period. The pewter mount—encompassing the collar, lid, and sculptural elongated handle—features a matte silver tone and is adorned with raised, stylized botanical motifs. The composition emphasizes verticality: a slender silhouette, narrow neck, and gently flared base contribute to the jug’s lightness and fluidity. The glass retains its clarity and gloss, while the pewter details attest to precise workmanship. The jug measures 33 cm in height, with a base diameter of 12.5 cm and an overall length of 16 cm. It is preserved in excellent condition, with no signs of damage or restoration. This vessel speaks with the voice of Art Nouveau: glass and pewter engage in a dialogue between nature and artistry. Green accents filter through the transparent body like shafts of light among foliage, while the flowing metallic lines form botanical ornaments as if newly sprung from the surface. The handle and lid evoke the sculptural gestures of an era when utility and decoration merged in organic unity. The jug seems to narrate a time when form and function met in harmonious, nature-inspired design. The jug may be displayed on a sideboard or console in the living room, where the interplay of glass and pewter pairs well with wood or dark stone. Combined with an Art Nouveau centerpiece, period porcelain, or a geometric candleholder, it will highlight a
