Description: This rare WMF EPERGNE centerpiece in this absolutely gorgeous gondola design is a stunning addition to any Art Deco collection.

Perfect for collectors or those who appreciate the beauty of antique silver plate. Absolutely rare to find with the actual glass inserts. Please see photo of another piece that sold for over $2200 without the inserts!!! Condition In good vintage age appropriate condition. Small age appropriate imperfections are to be expected with vintage pieces and add to their charm. Some plate loss on the center upper piece. This in my opinion adds to the charm and gives it more dimension! Please review all photos to form your own opinion. Dimensions Please see photos. Please REVIEW ALL (up to 24!!!)
