This very elegant and feminine Visiting Card Tray or dish decorated with a Nymph and a litle bird is another famous Jugenstil masterpiece.
It was designed by the influential sculptor/designer Albert Mayer for the well known German firm WMF (Wurtembergische MetalWarenFabrik) around 1903. Mayer was appointed head of the Art Studio in 1894 and specialized in designs which depicted beautiful maidens & nymphs with flowing hair and graceful postures.

This item is illustrated at page 167 of the original 1906 "The Art Nouveau Domestic Metalwork Catalogue" from WMF as model N° 246 and a photograph of an original of the same item is on the cover page of the modern edition of the catalogue.
