1895–1910

Jugendstil

The German line, drawn from nature

The German name for Art Nouveau, and a slightly different thing: more structural, less floral, and applied to everyday objects as well as luxury ones.

What to look for

A sinuous but disciplined line, nature motifs reduced to geometry, and a designer's monogram.
