AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A striking Zsolnay Pécs eosin-glazed ceramic vase, Hungary, featuring a richly detailed folk and Art Nouveau–inspired ornamental composition with stylised animals, floral motifs and scrolling vegetal elements. The vase is decorated all around with a deep, iridescent eosin glaze displaying vibrant tones of blue, green, turquoise and subtle purplish reflections, characteristic of Zsolnay’s celebrated eosin technique.
The form is elegant and well-proportioned, widening gently towards the shoulder and narrowing towards the base, with a finely decorated rim accented by a repeating stylised floral border. The decoration is meticulously executed, with strong colour depth and a beautiful metallic lustre that shifts depending on the light.
The base bears the round Zsolnay Pécs factory stamp along with the form number 5650, confirming authenticity and production by the renowned Zsolnay manufactory.
Condition: very good antique condition, with no cracks or chips. Minor signs of age and wear inside the vase and on the base, consistent with age and use, and not detracting from its visual appeal or collectability.
A highly decorative and collectible example of Hungarian Zsolnay eosin ceramics, suitable for collectors of Art Nouveau, Central European decorative arts, or fine historic ceramics.
