A pair of Archibald Knox Cymric silver and turquoise vases 2126

Price range: £7,450

A  pair of Liberty & Co Cymric silver and turquoise vases. Hallmarked Birmingham 1902, the design by Archibald Knox.  This design represents a good example of Knox’s modernist style. This model 2126 comes in several sizes.  This is the medium size at 14.5 cm in height and well proportioned.  Personally, I think it is one of Knox’s greatest designs.

Condition of the silver is very good.   All three turquoise stones are original and in excellent condition.
