This pair of Italian earthenware slip vases is a magnificent example of the artistic craftsmanship and creativity of the Bassano factory, under the direction of master Antonio Zen, at the beginning of the 20th century.
First of all, the handles represented by dragons add a mythological and exotic dimension to these pieces. Dragons, symbols of power and strength, are often used in decorative art to add a touch of mystery and elegance.
Then, the decorations on the bodies of the vases are remarkable. On the one hand, a romantic scene perhaps evokes love stories or tender moments, thus capturing the essence of romance that was highly prized at the time. On the other side, the landscape with a mill at the water's edge offers a peaceful and bucolic ambiance, transporting the viewer into a world of serenity and tranquility.
Dimension :
height: 37cm (14.6'')
width: 22cm (8.7'')
depth: 18cm (7'')
In addition, the leaf scroll feet bring a touch of sophistication and finesse to these vases, while ensuring their stability. Their elaborate design reflects the attention to detail and artisanal know-how of the Bassano factory.
Despite the gaps and restorations on the feet, these vases retain all their beauty and decorative character. Their “A.Z” signature attests to their authenticity and provenance, thus adding historical value to these pieces.
