AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A large, typically Art Nouveau-looking vase. This vase is made of high-quality materials, as evidenced by the "92%" mark on the base. It is decorated with a pair of water-lily flowers on each side, with long stems that flow down toward the base. Toward the center of the stems, there are two embossed butterflies. The base and the rim are adorned with Rococo-style scrolls. The prominent handles are shaped like two large double arched scrolls. No mark or signature, but clearly resembles a vase produced by WMF, except that butterflies have been added here.
