The widow of a South African magnate who had made his fortune in the Transvaal gold mines, Anna Blake settled in Paris in 1902 together with her two children. She began to accumulate works by the most important modern designers such as René Lalique, Carlo Bugatti and Lucien Gaillard.
Fascinated by the work of Carlo Bugatti, Anna Blake commissioned a large portion of the designer’s limited silver output. She soon became one of his best clients, and around 1907 commissioned a silver tea and coffee service. Receiving drawings for three different designs, and unable to make a selection, Blake commissionedall three examples the finest example decorated with dragonflies that we will have the honour to offer at Design Miami/ Basel 2017. Prolific as he was as a furniture designer and maker, Carlo Bugatti’s known silverware number only a handful of objects. The “Dragonfly” service is a unique piece that was already exhibited at the Musée d’Orsay, Paris, and The Cleveland Museum, Ohio.
Epitomizing Carlo Bugatti’s flights into his exotic imagination, it reflects the artist’s fascination with nature that characterized the end of the 19th century and the early 20th century.
