Hanau Silver Candelabra Center Piece Bowl
Hanau Silver Candelabra Center Piece Bowl
A substantial German Hanau silver candelabra centerpiece bowl with repoussé pastoral scenes and six removable candle cups, late 19th to early 20th century.
This impressive Hanau silver centerpiece bowl reflects the revivalist craftsmanship for which the German Hanau workshops are renowned. Designed as a multifunctional candelabra and centerpiece, the piece features a generously proportioned central bowl supported by a sculptural base, with six removable candle arms radiating outward.
The bowl is richly decorated on each side with repoussé pastoral landscapes, depicting figures in rural settings framed by scrolling foliage and classical ornament. The repoussé work is well-articulated, with careful attention to depth and narrative detail, characteristic of Hanau silverwork inspired by earlier European decorative traditions.
Each arm terminates in a silver-mounted paneled glass candle cup, removable for versatility and ease of use. The arms and supports are elaborately chased with scrolls and floral motifs, contributing to the piece’s balanced yet visually dynamic form.
The underside is stamped with pseudo–Ancien Régime French hallmarks, a common practice among Hanau silversmiths intended to evoke earlier French silver standards rather than indicate French origin. The overall composition demonstrates the Hanau school’s emphasis on historical revival, technical precision, and decorative richness.
Formerly from a Bedford, New York estate, this centerpiece would have served as a striking focal point on a formal dining or presentation table, combining illumination with ornamental display.
