The silvervare sterling holloware collection: The louis xv style, or rocaille, pushes the fanciful opulence of the regency period even further. This style is one of the most imaginative in the history of the decorative arts and has, over the centuries, been recognised as the most perfect, defining embodiment of french taste. It is typified by plant motifs, shells, flowers and leaves, arranged with a pleasant asymmetry and the lines of the compositions entwined in convoluted arabesques. Ercuis's “louis xv” collection recalls this special period, particularly in the elaborately worked kettle, consisting of a chiselled cast iron base supported by four balls of ebony, allowing it to tilt for pouring and keep the water hot over an alcohol burner. The moveable handle has an ebony handgrip. The creation of this piece takes eight hours, including assembly, soldering and finishing.
