Art Nouveau style jewelry - Elaine Smitha

More jewelry from long ago. 

Elaine Smitha's website is at http://www.elainesmitha.com/

but it doesn't look like she making jewelry anymore.

Illustration - Eugene Karlin

Another illustrator whose work had an art nouveau feel, was Eugene Karlin, who just passed away in 2003 at 84. For many years his drawings were very common in magazine ads, and I saved a few.

Illustration - David McCall Johnston

A number of illustrators work in the art nouveau style, borrowing elements to combine with their own personal elements. 

Here is some work by David McCall Johnston. He has a nice website, but I don't see any of his art nouveau style work there.

Star-Child

And one of mine:

David Lance Goines

David Lance Goines, Berkeley's fine poster artist and lithographer, often works in the art nouveau / arts and crafts style. You can see much more of his work at his website http://www.goines.net/ , including larger versions of his posters, and even buy some.

Contemporary Art Nouveau Style Art - T_a_r_o_t Decks

Not "pure" Art Nouveau, but luscious and beautiful.

A gorgeous Aquarian T_a_r_o_t set by David Palladini,

which can be purchased here: 
New Palladini T_a_r_o_t Deck & Book Set

and I see that he's just designed a new T_a_r_o_t Deck as well! See it here.

Here's a example from a T_a_r_o_t Deck that includes cards by Palladini, 

along with cards by artists in a similar style. See the deck here.

Contemporary Art Nouveau Style Furniture

Before looking into the famous historical works of Art Nouveau, I'd like to give recognition to some artists working in the style today. Art Nouveau style is extravagant, so such objects are not the most economical. Yet some artists still are producing gorgeous work. When I had the opportunity to furnish a house some years ago,  it was difficult to find anything in the art nouveau style - I wound up buying reproductions, which are very nice indeed, but it's nice just to see beautiful original work. So here are some wonderful contemporary artists whose work is influenced by art nouveau, or that at least might fit into an art nouveau decor:

John Hein - http://pluto.njcc.com/~jhein/

Paul Reiber - http://www.mendocinowoodworking.com/PaulReiber/

(and the whole website has beautiful work)

William Doub - http://www.customfurniture-doub.com/

Sam Maloof - there are several memorial sites for him, but none seem to have a good collection of his work.

The best way to see it for now seems to be to do a google image search for his name.

And here are two gorgeous pieces I found in a catalog, but I can't discover whether they are still being made (sadly):

Some of my favorites

It's difficult to pick just a few favorites, but here's an attempt.

A necklace by Archibald Knox.

A painting by Gustav Klimt ("The Kiss").

A 1960s festival poster.
