The golden age of Art Nouveau covered a twenty-year span between 1890 and 1910. Also known as The Glasgow Style and Jugendstil, this movement sought to erase the stiff formality of preceding styles and norms. Truly modern in its aesthetics and sensibilities, Art Nouveau is characterized by organic, symmetrical lines and curves. The style was employed across many mediums, including architecture, illustration, poster art, and jewelry. Popular artists of the movement include Gustav Klmit, Victor Horta, and Alphonse Mucha.
On the obverse of 10 oz Antique Art Nouveau Woman Silver Bars the Argentia brand logo is shown along with the identifying hallmarks. The logo contains a stylish triangular pattern with the word Argentia inscribed below it. The hallmarks appear beneath this and include the bar’s weight, purity, and metal type. You’ll also notice a Greek meander-style pattern in the background.
The reverse of 10 oz Antique Argentia Silver Bars features the figure of a woman designed in the Art Nouveau style. Here, the woman is shown in a front-facing position with her neck turned towards the right. Her hair flows forth and occupies the remainder of the field, creating a lush, free-flowing aesthetic.
When you purchase 10 oz Antique Argentia Art Nouveau Woman Bars from JM Bullion, they will be delivered in protective mylar sleeves.
