Oscar B. Bach (1884-1957) Humidor, New York, c. 1925, silvered bronze, brass, enameled metal, cedar, vignettes of artists at work, unmarked, ht. 5, wd. 11, dp. 6 1/4 in. Note: German born craftsman Oscar Bruno Bach was one of the most technically skilled and commercially successful figures in the field of decorative metalwork during the first half of the 20th century. His design and production ranged from small and domestic to grand-scale architectural. His style was as diverse as his use of metals and included Arts & Crafts, Gothic, Renaissance, Spanish Baroque, Tudor Revival, and, on occasion, modern Art Deco. Thematically he was particularly fond of the zodiac, of lush scrolling grapevines, classical masks, mythological symbols and elements of the Italianate and Germanic grotesque. - oscarbach.org
