A PAIR OF ALUMINUM JARDINIERE BY WILTON. Unusual for an American production, the feeling conveyed by this pair is fin de siecle recalling decadent book illustration from the 1920s although the use of aluminum suggests a date of manufacture closer to mid 20th century. Well integrated design with organic art nouveau inspired foliate rims and curved sides, four stylized panels contain contrasting geometric vertical ribbing hinting at art deco, the space between each panel extending into four rais ...click for details

A GOOD SET OF FOUR CHINESE DREAMSTONE PANELS, a total of 16 framed landscape scenes in Dali marble (limestone) resembling scholary Chinese brush paintings in black ink with very subtle variations in brown, dark green, grey and occasional suffusions of yellow-orange and red.
