Description
Offering a very rare, complete Art Nouveau gilt sterling silver belt by William Kerr, Newark, New Jersey. Created late 19th century.Folks, this is a rare opportunity to pickup one of the best pieces Kerr ever created. This magnificent original belt features seven sections consisting of winged cherubs, of which four are different sizes and poses. This may have been a special order. Since, collecting this type of item for many years, I’ve never seen one with full gold wash as is seen in this piece. Signed. Kerr, Sterling, 4.
Measuring 26” Long, 2 3/4” x 2 1/2”, the central piece, and Weighing 77.8 grams.
Best part of this belt set is the condition. No damage, no wear. Gilding is as good as it gets. This wonderful belt appears to have been bought and packed away for 130 years.
The rarity and condition of this marvelous Kerr belt make it an especially attractive offering and would certainly be a highlight of anyone's advanced Art Nouveau sterling silver collection.
