[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 2897035, member: 2844"]It is Art Nouveau, and it is gorgeous.:happy: The one in the google ad is probably marked, otherwise you wouldn't know it is AH. AH Art Nouveau is called Sezession (Secession), btw, not Jugendstil. They are going on a bit about irrelevant things, aren't they? In Dutch we use the German term Jugendstil, although the French term Art Nouveau is gaining popularity. The nickname was 'spaghetti en slaoliestijl', after a well-known 1893 advertisement by Dutch-Indonesian artist Jan Toorop. He modeled his people after Javanese Wayang puppets.;) The ad was for salad oil, and people thought the hair looked like spaghetti.:playful: [IMG]https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8b/Delftsche_Slaolie.jpeg/393px-Delftsche_Slaolie.jpeg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
