Ercuis - Salt cellar - Silverplated - 19th-century condiment holder

• Ercuis - Large double saleron / condiment holder, Art Nouveau - Silvered metal • Description: Superb and imposing double saleron (or condiment holder) from the Art Nouveau period / late 19th century, crafted by the prestigious French haute-orfèvrerie house Ercuis. The piece rests on eight curved feet adorned with magnificent fan-shaped stylized shells. The bowls feature walls with twisted fluted sides and an elegant central cartouche in the shape of an inverted heart, ideal for a monogram. The tall central pierced handle gives the whole piece a very slender silhouette. Under the base, the item bears a full set of original marks: • The ERCUIS brand in full letters. • The official square master punch with the Centaur (created in 1886). • The number 10 (indicating the silvering fineness). • The model/catalogue number 6725. • Condition: Good overall condition, very nice shine of the silvering with a superb antique patina. Light usage oxidations inside the bowls (consistent with age and use, see photos).
