Description :
Art Nouveau Revival Silver-Plated Trinket Box Lid with Iris Motif – Mid-20th Century A beautifully detailed silver-plated trinket or powder box lid, decorated with raised irises in full bloom. The domed form and flowing floral relief are strongly influenced by the Art Nouveau style, where nature-inspired motifs and sinuous lines were central to design. Its elegant surface catches the light, making it as much a decorative object as it is functional. Measurements (range): Diameter: Approx. 3.5"–4.25" Height: Approx. 1"–1.5" Historical Note: Value:
The iris flower was a beloved motif of the Art Nouveau movement (1890–1910), symbolizing renewal, elegance, and natural beauty. Mid-20th century revival pieces like this echoed that earlier style, blending ornamental design with practical household use. Such items were often sold as vanity accessories or keepsake containers, and today they remain popular with collectors of decorative arts and vintage silverplate.
Comparable Art Nouveau–style silverplate vanity and trinket pieces typically range from $75–$150 on the vintage market, with higher prices for complete sets or confirmed maker’s marks.
