Aiguière Art déco Airain – signed Herment – Belgium – circa 1930
Elegant Belgian decorative ewer/vase from the Art Deco period, probably made in the 1920s–1930s.
The piece features a very original and slender form, with a long narrow neck with oblique opening, a large pierced handle and a pear-shaped body characteristic of Art Deco aesthetics.
Beautiful glaze in brown-black, green, bronze and gold tones, with drips and patina effects that give great depth to the surface.
The piece retains its old oval label “AIRAIN” applied on the neck.
The front face also bears a handwritten signature “Herment”, clearly visible on the lower part of the body.
Under the base there is a raised mark “BELGIUM”, accompanied by the number “2”.
