Beechnut design. Another of the interesting, strongly modelled and basically simple forms created and produced in Greece in the early 1900s, post World War 1, mostly out of Thessaloniki in the north, and the capital Athens. Many of these Greek designs from the early 20th century seem to have been modelled on everyday forms, though there was also a strong Art Nouveau influence.
There was an efflorescence of bold creative art in Greece following the dismantling of the Ottoman Empire post World War 1, with an independent Greece turning emphatically towards Europe, its art and its style.
