Two tin vases in the neoclassical style, produced in Portugal in the mid-20th century, each with an ovoid conical body and spiral fluting, domed lids, and measuring 30 cm high by 18 cm wide and 18 cm deep; condition acceptable – very worn and possibly small parts missing.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
They are two pewter vases that stand out for their quality of manufacture and for the fidelity with which they reinterpret the neoclassical language in the mid‑20th century. The Artesano 99% mark confirms a high-purity pewter alloy, something very typical of the finest Portuguese production of the era, where the metal was worked with a mix of industrial precision and a manual finish.
Each piece features an elegant, well-proportioned, conical oval body, whose sides are modeled with a spiral fluting that adds dynamism without losing classical serenity. That helical relief, deep and regular, creates a very attractive play of light, making the metal appear almost animated when illuminated from the side.
The domed lids, decorated with the same spiral molding, complete the composition with formal coherence. The small top finial in the shape of an urn serves as a direct nod to the neoclassical repertoire: sober, symbolic, balanced.
Together, they are vases that combine weight, presence and refinement, perfect as standalone decorative pieces or as a symmetrical pair on a console, fireplace, or sideboard. They represent very well that Lusitanian-Iberian tradition of the mid‑20th century that knew how to update classical languages without losing their essence.
Certified shipping and good packaging.
