This exquisite silver plate cup is a refined example of Austrian Jugendstil (Art Nouveau) craftsmanship, created circa 1910. The body is adorned with a beautifully executed raised floral motif framed within a vertical panel, showcasing the organic lines and botanical themes characteristic of the period. Its sculptural handle, with its geometric yet fluid silhouette, provides a striking contrast that reflects the transition from traditional forms to the modernist sensibilities emerging in early 20th‑century design.
There is an elegant engraved monogram on the front that reads BC.
Crafted in Austria with meticulous attention to detail, the cup displays crisp repoussé work, harmonious proportions, and a graceful presence. Both decorative and historically significant, it stands as a charming testament to the artistry of the Jugendstil movement and would make a distinguished addition to any curated Art Nouveau collection.
There are no visible silversmith hallmarks.
