Bernard Bloch Figural Art Nouveau vases, Teplice, c1900
Two large Bernard Bloch figural Art Nouveau vases, made in Teplice around 1900. One has been visibly repaired but they are so obviously a pair that it would be shame to separate them.
They are in earthenware majolica, in muted shades of green and brown. They are a true pair; one of the maidens is smiling, the other more pensive,
The vases are signed BB 8802 and 3802 respectively. One of the vases is signed by the artist, though we can’t make out the name.
Height 12¼ inches / 31cm
Width at base 5 inches / 12cm
Weighs 1.6 kilos.
Alas, some damage to back of one vase, shown in the photos. The other is in very good condition, with no chips or cracks; some crazing.
