Two jewels of the time that will make every collector's heart beat faster: A pair of Art Nouveau vases whose history dates back to the Vienna Secession. Designed around 1900 in the renowned Josef Riedel glass factory in Polaun, they radiate the elegant charm of that era, in which art and craftsmanship merged into a unique symbiosis.
Made from fir green crystal glass, the vases are true works of art. Their square shape and high walls lend them a majestic presence that is both robust and delicate. The floral decoration, stylised in delicate gold painting, winds playfully around the surface and tells of the beauty of nature - a central motif of Art Nouveau. This work of art is complemented by the fine lines in white enamel, which contrast gently with the golden floral accents and emphasise the elegance of the vases.
The vases, which have survived for over a century in excellent condition, bear minimal traces of their time - a touch of history that only adds to their value. This ensemble is not only an aesthetic highlight, but also an important testimony to the history of arts and crafts that should not be missing from any discerning collection.
A piece of Viennese history, captured in glass - timeless, artistic and unique.
