AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Rare pair of Zsolnay Pécs eosin-lidded jars, attributed to the DeForma Design Group / Judit Turcsányi.

Both jars possess the same characteristic, tactilely relief-ed base with three feet, but differ in the design of the lid knob and in their exceptional eosin color glaze.

Red / copper-colored jar

Height: approx. 10.5 cm

Diameter: approx. 10 cm

Weight: 261 g

Intense red-copper, metallic iridescent eosin glaze

Good condition

Turquoise / blue jar

Height: approx. 10.5 cm

Diameter: approx. 10 cm

Weight: 278 g

Turquoise-blue, metallic iridescent eosin glaze

At the upper edge there is a fine hairline crack that extends downward into the body. The crack is clearly documented in the detail photos.

Both pieces bear the Zsolnay-Pécs ground mark on the underside, as well as additional incised and/or handwritten identifying numbers.

(Only very few comparable pieces of this model are available). The two different color variants are offered together as one lot.

Please note all photos, especially the close-ups of the ground marks and the hairline crack. The photos are part of the condition description.
