A certain shimmer can rest over a collector’s home, a glow visible only to those who hold a particular interest in art, craft, and design. And just such a halo rests over A Collector’s Home from Lammhult — the theme of which Växjö Auktionskammare now presents the first part.
Here we are met with 100 lots, all executed in silver, representing a selection that spans two centuries of silver artistry. Among the highlights is a tastefully restrained teapot by Gustaf Möllenborg from 1890. And is not the neo-Rococo writing set from 1871, with its branches and leaves, a hint of the Art Nouveau currents that would sweep in at the end of the 19th century? If one more piece must be mentioned, Samuel Pettersson’s hunting trophy is impossible to overlook — a work displaying truly exceptional detail.
Alongside these are boxes, trays, ladles, dishes, cutlery, and coins. For those looking to complete a cutlery service, several excellent opportunities await.
You are warmly invited to explore the pieces featured in A Collector’s Home from Lammhult: Part 1!
