Description

A pair of very rare Art deco miniature Argenta trinket pottery plates or dish designed and handmade by Wilhelm Kåge … more A pair of very rare Art deco miniature Argenta trinket pottery plates or dish designed and handmade by Wilhelm Kåge for Gustavsberg in the 1930s. Green ceramic with silver decoration. The Argenta series is very typical of the Swedish Grace style that was popular in Sweden in the 1920s and 1930s and took inspiration from earlier periods but with a modern twist. The line was introduced at the Stockholm exhibition in 1930 and has become very rare and sought after. They are in a very good condition with almost no ware at all, the glazing in the smallest one has some fine lines in it, yet given the age they are still small things of beauty.
