AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A beautiful vase has a bulging, egg-shaped form with a narrow neck. The body is covered with a striking, iridescent (rainbow-like) glaze in deep shades of cobalt blue, purple and petrol green with a metallic sheen. The most striking feature is the three-dimensional application of a branch with leaves and ripe fruit (apples or crab apples), made of matte, subtly polychromed ceramic in yellow, green and red tones.
Stijl en herkomst
Stijl: Jugendstil / Art Nouveau (late 19th – early 20th century, ca. 1895–1910). Characteristic are the organic form, flowing lines, three-dimensional natural motifs and iridescent glazes.
Fabriek: The most likely maker is the Czech/Austrian manufactory Amphora (Turn-Teplitz) or another producer from the Teplitz region (such as Ernst Wahliss or Stellmacher). They were known for ceramics with three-dimensional applications of fruit and leaves on iridescent backgrounds. Other possibilities are the Hungarian Zsolnay (because of the eosin glaze) or RStK (Riessner, Stellmacher & Kessel).
