“La Sculpture Ornementale Moderne”

By Hans Carl Perleberg.
Issued in Paris around 1910.

DISCUSSION: An interesting design portfolio of art nouveau metalwork,
featuring art nouveau motifs on flat metalwork- medallions, mantel backs,
cornices and the like. Although unmarked, these plates are from the
working design library of Lunt Silversmiths, and were actively used by
designers as inspiration for silver details and designs. Several of the
plates have light pencil doodles and sketches of design ideas in the
margins. Very uncommon in any condition.

DESCRIPTION: 10”x12”, 26 [of 30] loose plates, tipped onto card pages,
enclosed in a card folder with a cloth spine. Hand-lettered title. Lacking
one plate.

CONDITION NOTES: Some cards with chipping at the corners or edges. Title
hand-lettered on one plate. Housed in a plain card folder. Several of the
backing pages are stamped “Represented by G.A. Fenney, North Court St.,
Providence, R.I.”.

PRICE: $200~
