Art Nouveau Architectural Style - An Overview
Art Nouveau (“New Art”) is an architectural style that became extremely popular in the early 20th century. Art Nouveau features organic and floral motifs and stylized curvilinear forms. The basic concept is bringing art into everyday settings. Although Art Nouveau was first used in Europe it soon spread to the rest of the world and began showing up everywhere from architecture to furniture.
The Art Nouveau style was a reaction against the rigid and formal styles found in the 18th century. Many buildings were built in this style and feature arches, stained glass, Japanese motifs and asymmetrical shapes. It is ironic that although Art Nouveau emphasizes nature and natural forms it was an urban city trend. It was especially popular in Paris and art nouveau influences can still be seen today.
In the United States Art Nouveau was popular in larger cities like New York and Chicago. An example is the glasswork of Louis Comfort Tiffany who created beautiful glass designs featuring flowers, plants and insects in stylized patterns. Art Nouveau remained popular in the United States and Europe until the outbreak of the first World War. Although Art Nouveau went out of style the concept of creating aesthetically beautiful buildings using natural themes has remained.
Using the art nouveau style in your home is a great way to add simple and beautiful detail. LookInTheAttic & Company offers a wide range of home hardware and lighting in the art nouveau style. Remember that Art Nouveau can be introduced as a complete theme through your entire house or as a little extra detail on a cabinet or piece of furniture. The wide variety of designs makes this a versatile architectural style.

were silverplate art nouveau repoussé jewelry pieces ever made?
i'm considering the purchase of an art nouveau jewelry item. both the chain & repoussé pendant are unmarked but are said to "test positive for sterling". three questions:
• does silverplate test positive for sterling?
• was silverplating being done during the art nouveau era?
• it is possible for a item from the art nouveau period to be not marked silver even though it truly is?
thanks for any informed answers!
Hi! If it's art nouveau,,, where is it from? The French have been marking silver since 1798. They can be very clever about secreting the marks but the marks must be there as well silverplate marks which are in a rectangle as opposed to the diamond shape. Numeral indicates silverplate thickness. The British, German and American are also stringent with their markings and most certainly by the time art nouveau took hold. And yes, the piece can be silverplate. Also, if something is plated heavily enough it may test as silver but there are tests to verify the difference. And yes, anything is possible. If the clasp was the only part marked and the clasp was replaced.. so goes the evidence. Silver is silver.. all through and through. If they don't wish to apply chemicals to test it, let them do a scratch test in an inconspicuous place to determine how dense the plating is... or isn't. If they are selling it, the onus is on them to be reliable and provide you with proof. The words silver or sterling silver describe an American product that contains 92.5% silver. Silver products sometimes may be marked 925 which means that 925 parts per thousand are pure silver. Some jewelry may be described as silverplate: a layer of silver is bonded to a base metal. The mark coin silver is used for compounds that contain 90% silver. According to the law, quality-marked silver also must bear the name or a U.S. registered trademark of the company or person that will stand behind the mark. I would ask them for some means of proof (and put it in writing) or ask if you may take it somewhere independently for verification, I don't know how much they are asking for the necklace or if you want to go that route but it would offer you piece of mind.
