An impressive pair of sterling silver faceted vases, standing a commanding 14 inches tall, striking in both scale and architectural clarity. Crafted by Sylvan Bros., these vases are a masterclass in restraint—proof that strong design doesn’t need ornament to make an impression.
Each vase features a crisp, vertically faceted body that subtly catches and reflects light, creating movement across the polished surface without a single engraved flourish. The flared, multi-sided rim opens gracefully, while the angular, stepped base anchors the form with confidence and balance. The silhouette is clean, symmetrical, and unmistakably early 20th century, bridging late Arts & Crafts sensibility with emerging Art Deco influence.
Marked STERLING C2828, these were clearly intended as serious decorative objects—statement pieces for a mantel, sideboard, or dining table. Equally striking empty or filled, they are ideal for:
Tall floral arrangements
Single dramatic stems
Formal table symmetry when displayed as a pair
Architectural accents in both traditional and modern interiors
There’s a quiet authority to vases like these. No chasing, no repoussé—just excellent proportion, honest materials, and confident craftsmanship. Sterling silver that doesn’t shout, but never goes unnoticed. The kind of pieces that make you realize simplicity, when done right, is anything but simple
