| Lovely sterling silver Art Nouveau small double picture frame made by William Kerr & Co circa 1900. The repousse cover of a naked lady lying on the waves with the exotic bird overhead and the blazing rising sun behind her head evokes the feeling of the time. The inside of the frame holds pictures on both sides. The fame measures 1 7/8"W X 2 3/8"L. It closes like a book but no longer snaps closed. The back has an ornate monogram that has an L in the middle but really looks like it an assortment of letters. The inside is stamped STERLING 1173 and the Kerr hallmark. Art Nouveau lasted only about 15 years and the objects of that time are always hard to find and very special. | ||
