Punchkom met deksel c. 1902 - 1915

Richard Riemerschmid, a prominent German designer and architect of the Jugendstil and Art Nouveau movements, created this ceramic punch bowl, "Punchkom met deksel," around 1902-1915. The bowl features a rounded, three-legged form with a domed lid, meticulously decorated with intricate floral motifs in a contrasting blue and white glaze. This piece exemplifies Riemerschmid's mastery of ceramic design and his ability to seamlessly integrate functional elements with decorative artistry. It represents a quintessential example of German applied arts during the early 20th century.
