This is a rare large beautiful Victorian solid silver vase, crafted by the highly sought after German silversmith Gebruder Kuhn, this was assayed in schwabisch gmund, Germany in Cicra 1900 making it 117 years old, it is wonderful condition the quality of the craftsmanship is superb as you would expect, the design is so very elegant and timeless, with it's tapering panelled body and banded shoulders, this in turn runs up to a very pretty waisted neck which flares outwards with a raised banded design to the top, the base has a raised matching decorated weighted base. This would have once belonged to a wealthy household and sat pride of place on a table displaying wonderful coloured flowers, in time when things were so very different, this wonderful and very special vase is a good size and as you can see has a later inscription to the front, it says it was given to a member of the French embassy, I haven't had time to do any research but would be very interesting to find out more information. This Victorian vase is so very tactile and has the most wonderful feel when held. It is fully hallmarked to the bottom. It would make an absolutely splendid gift, this actually serves a purpose, this will add something extremely special to any collection Maker.... Gebruder Kuhn  History In 1860, Johann Stanislaus Nepomuk Kuhn, a goldsmith from Vienna, founded a silversmith manufacture in the heart of the old staufercity, schwabisch Gmund.  1886- about 26 years later, his sons Emil and Gustav took over the manufacture and gave the company the name Gebruder Kuhn. Fast the buisness became a flourishing company which products had the typical unicorn hallmark - the heraldic animal from Schwabisch Gmund. In 1984, Sonja Quandt became owner of the silver workshop and moved the company in the city quarter named Strassdorf. Since then silver goods are produced with it's own understanding of luxury for the whole world.  Assay....
