A silver bouquet holder - can one imagine anything more absolutely unnecessary and at the same time delightfully exquisite? An excellent one can now be admired at Stockholms Auktionsverk Globen, and it is one of over 80 lots in the theme Three Centuries of Silver. The curated selection is a showcase of three centuries of craftsmanship, and without exaggeration, it can be said that there is something here for every taste. A goblet by Jean Debrie is a sample of excellent French 18th-century modernism. A sugar bowl by Carl Nyström in ornate Neo-Rococo style is something entirely different. Not to mention the small bonbon dish from the firm Karl Andersson. These are just a few examples of the diversity in the theme, which also includes Jacob Ängman's Rosenholm service of 143 pieces, a pair of sauce boats made in London in 1763, a variety of coffee pots, and much more.
