This expressive Art Nouveau vase from the 1940s captures the poetic spirit of the period with its sensuous curves, flowing lines, and romantic subject matter. It depicts a graceful woman leaning against a large, blooming iris, seamlessly blending form and function in a sculptural design.
Crafted in glazed ceramic with a lustrous, iridescent finish, the piece showcases a harmonious blend of blue, green, and pearl tones. The female figure, dressed in a flowing gown, is beautifully integrated into the floral form, making this vase both a decorative object and a work of art. Despite its age, the glaze still shimmers under light, enhancing its visual appeal.
