Description from the seller
Elegant decorative vase with silver inserts, characterized by a tall, tapered shape, with a slightly bulging body in the middle and a wide, flared neck. The vase rests on a raised foot and on a flat circular base, also richly decorated.
The surface features a background in brown-bronze and amber tones, on which an elaborate silver decoration develops, created with fine motifs of scrolls, botanical sprigs, floral elements, and arabesques. The decoration, very dense and refined, extends practically over the entire surface of the vase and continues also on the base.
Art Deco taste. The body of the vase is completely covered by a refined floral decoration in silver with at the center a figure of a dancer.
Dimensions: 41x15 cm.
Excellent condition; the inner rim of the vase body was left rough by the glassmaker who created it.
Seller's Story
My name is Riccardo. I recently graduated in Art History from the University of Florence and I am passionate about porcelain. From tableware to artistic vases, from figurines to tea and coffee sets, I am fascinated by the mastery and creativity of great artisans and designers who manage to shape this fragile material, transforming a rough mass into masterpieces with a story to tell. During my years at university I began to become interested in the history of nineteenth- and twentieth-century tableware; today, every day, I deal with prestigious porcelain pieces that always have something to say to me and to those who purchase them. I love that every day I can discover more about the objects I find while traveling around Italy, always learning something new. I always try to convey to my clients this passion I have for the objects I sell, certain that each of them has a story to tell: that of the creator, that of the one who preserved it, and that of the person who will give it a new life.
