Description
LARGE Antique AMPHORA Art Nouveau MAIDEN PORTRAIT VASE DescriptionWe are pleased to offer this exquisite and rare Amphora vase. Please note that the photos taken outside in natural light give the most accurate representation of the true colors of this piece. The colors are not as dark as they look in the darker photos.This vase is a large size measuring 11.75 inches high (about 30 cm) and approximately 6.25 inches in diameter (about 16 cm). The decoration features the profile of a lovely maiden with flowers in her hair. She has beautiful coloring on her dress and flowers in shades of blue, pink, purple and green (it looks like enamel), highlighted with raised gold. Her long hair flows into the trees/forest and the forest continues around the entire piece. The background of the vase is an ivory color and the trees are done in shades of green with gold accents.Markings include the red "RStK" mark with "Made In Austria" faintly visible underneath, an impressed "632" and the impressed "Amphora" in an oval mark (very hard to see in the photo but it is there) - dating this piece to around 1905. The condition is excellent. There are no chips, cracks or repairs. There is some wear to the gold, mainly around the top/rim of the vase and on some of the raised areas outlining the flowers.
