This beautiful, heavy antique Art Nouveau decorative brass vase dates to the turn of the 20th century - circa 1900. The vase features an elegant, organic design where the sweeping twin side handles seamlessly morph out of the embossed botanical leaf relief on the body.
Physical Specifications:
• Height: 24 cm
• Weight: 1.4 kg (Significant, solid-cast metal weight)
• Material: Solid cast brass / bronze alloy
• Base: Smooth, recessed, and completely unsigned/unmarked
Condition:
Excellent antique condition with no cracks, major dents, or structural warping. It retains an authentic aged patina with oxidation in the veins of the leaves.
***A Note on Origin:**
The piece is entirely unsigned. The organic handle integration mirrors Western European Art Nouveau design (such as French or German Jugendstil), though it also shares characteristics with high-quality Japanese export brassware of the late Meiji period made for the Western market. It is being sold strictly on its immense aesthetic merit, heavy weight, and antique craftsmanship.*
