Gorgeous Art Nouveau Vide-Poche / Oatmeal-shaped decorative bowl with Water Nymph – Alexandre Vibert A splendid and authentic Art Nouveau decorative bowl (vide-poche) designed by the well-known French sculptor Alexandre Vibert (1847-1909), made around 1900. The bowl showcases a beautifully finely detailed high relief of a rising water nymph (Naïade) from the waves of the sea, with a rising sun and organic cloud formations in the background. This dynamic and undulating design is typical of the heyday of French Art Nouveau.

Vibert" on the front, at the base of the relief. Condition: In good, original condition. The bowl has a beautiful, authentic patina that perfectly enhances the depth of the relief. No dents, cracks, or deep scratches present. The reverse is fully smooth finished in the negative of the relief, with no foundry marks. A wonderful and rare collector’s item for enthusiasts of French Art Nouveau and fine metalwork. The bowl will of course be carefully packed.
