AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Nimy, the famous Belgian earthenware factory Manufacture Impériale et Royale de Nimy (active between 1789 and 1951).

The bulb-shaped vase in your photo with the fine-mesh craquelé is a characteristic example of their production from the Art Deco period (ca. 1920-1940).

Features of the Nimy Craquelé style: Often executed in a monochrome cream color or white glaze, sometimes complemented with colorful geometric patterns.

Technique: The craquelé effect (the network of small cracks in the glaze) was a deliberate artistic choice that gives depth and character to the form.

Seller's Story

My passion for unique objects started early. From antique markets to garage sales, I was always searching for hidden treasures. Later, I learned the ins and outs of the trade at an auction house, and eventually, I decided to forge my own path as an independent dealer. Every day, I work to shape my shop further, and Catawiki is a fantastic platform to expand my collection and share my passion with others. Finding unique pieces, carefully giving them a second life, and then offering them in my online store. I trust my eye for quality, my sense of style, and my craftsmanship.
