Description from the seller
Stavangerflint – Hand-painted vase by Inger Waage (IW) – Model 31/24 – Norway – Mid 20th century
A stunning and rare ceramic vase from Stavangerflint (Norway), designed and hand-painted by the iconic artist Inger Waage (1923–1995). Waage is considered one of the most beloved designers of the brand and is internationally known for her expressive, modernist décors featuring birds, leaves, and abstract graphic elements.
This vase – model 31/24 – features a colorful, fully hand-applied underglaze decoration with a red fish motif, deep cobalt blue, green foliage, and contrasting black-and-white patterns. The work is clearly recognizable as Waage’s characteristic style: energetic, modern, artistic, and particularly decorative.
At the bottom, marked with the old Stavangerflint logo, 'Stavangerflint Norway,' the inscription 'Handpainted,' and the handwritten signature IW of Inger Waage herself. This combination makes the piece especially attractive to collectors.
Condition
Very good vintage condition with light craquelé.
No cracks, chips, or restorations.
Bright, vivid colors
A few light signs appropriate for age.
