WMF Jugendstil Art Nouveau Secessionist Centrepiece Bowl c.1905.

An authentic WMF (Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik) Art Nouveau centerpiece bowl with original glass liner dating to around 1900–1910.

Crafted in silver-plated metal with stylised geometric and organic motifs, the design reflects the influence of the Vienna Secession. The bold angular openwork handles and shield-like decorations around the body are classic Jugendstil details.

Originally intended as a table centerpiece or fruit bowl, it stands elegantly on three splayed legs. A fine and decorative example of early 20th-century German design, highly collectable today.
