Gorham’s Fleurs Des Siècles Small Dolphin by Jane Hutcheson

Fleurs Des Siecles enameled flower arrangement designed by brilliant American designer Jane Hutcheson and produced by Gorham between 1970 to mid-1980s. This particular piece is called the Dolphin and it is the smaller size of the two Dolphins. Each leaf, jewel and flower has been hand-made and hand-enameled and mounted on gold plated wire. The white polished porcelain urn features raised floral design and three dolphins with gold accents. These were made in Italy in very small runs which makes these arrangements very hard to find.

Inspired by the 17th and 18th century Vincennes porcelain flowers and reminiscent of the jeweled treatment by Faberge, Fleurs Des Siecles was Gotham’s most successful gift line and remains to today a highly collectible and much sought after.
