Description
Exceptional Dominic & Haff Japonisme Sterling Cabinet Vase"”Dragonfly & Cobwebs
This exquisite Dominic & Haff sterling silver cabinet vase is a rare and finely detailed example of Japonisme-inspired design from the late 19th to early 20th century. Standing 2.5 inches high with a 1.75-inch diameter and weighing 47 grams, the vase showcases masterful workmanship with intricate, raised relief work depicting dragonflies, cobwebs, and blossoming flora against a finely textured, leaf-patterned background.
The artistic influence of Japanese aesthetics is evident in the delicate asymmetry and organic flow of the design, capturing the beauty of nature in a highly stylized yet lifelike manner. The crisp detailing of the insects and plants, combined with the aged patina, enhances the depth and contrast of the relief, making this a visually stunning piece.
Stamped "STERLING 925" along with the Dominic & Haff maker's marks, this petite but highly collectible cabinet vase is a superb example of American Japonisme silverwork. Ideal for collectors of antique sterling, Art Nouveau silver, or Japonisme decorative arts, this piece is in excellent antique condition, with light wear appropriate to its age.
