(A) Just shot from Jack's famous
Restoration Cannon, this incredible solid bronze vase has been
refinished and patinated in brushed nickel. It's about 9 inches
high. Pas mal, eh? (e-mail

(B) Here we easily see why Longwy,
with its superior esthethic, commands such a ready audience.
This vase is about 10 inches high, 7 wide. (e-mail

(C) WMF (German) vases with compelling
Modernist designs. They stand at about 10 inches. (e-mail

(F) "Editions Etling, Paris"
accompanies the moniker of Marcel Guillard on the bottom of this
handsome, heavy (8 1/2 pounds!) pottery vase which measures 11
wide, 9 tall. With its crackle glaze and peachy color, it comes
close to looking like eggshell.
You BET Bruce jumped on this
Guillard when he saw it! SOLD!!

(H) A striking 14 inches tall,
8 wide, this presumably Italian porcelain vase has its original
(illegible) paper label intact! Judging from the artwork, I'd
say it was made in the 50's. (e-mail

(I) This subtlely colored moss
green vase by the French company St. Radegonde stands 9 1/2 inches
high and is just about as wide. Aren't the "handles"
and embellishment around the opening just "Art Deco whimsy"
at its best? (e-mail

(J) What's a cache pot doing
mixed in the vases? Taking a walk on the wild side? I
just adore the high glaze, vividly colored, undulating Art Nouveau-styled
artistry of this piece, which is 10 inches in diameter, 8 inches
high. On the interior it has two short"hairline cracks"
in the glaze emanating from the top, but there are no chips at
the top. It has the company stamp insized on the bottom, "Longchamp
de Fer," and the artist's initial, "N". (e-mail

(K) Talk about sweet! This
ample-sized, 14-inch tall ceramic vase has a positively liquid-appearing high
glaze. It's marked "Made in Denmark," and there are
artist's or company initials etched into the bottom as well,
something in the realm of JAK....??? It was used as a lamp base
and there is a tiny, 1/4 inch diameter hole in the side, right
at the bottom. I've plugged it for the moment, and it holds water
just fine! (e-mail

(L) I can't imagine why we can't
show off another German vase amongst the French and Danish examples!
The fine Modernist of the artwork would already have taken my
breath away, but nothing was left after I'd seen those saturn-like
wings! It's just over 4 1/2 inches tall. (e-mail

(N) Standing just under 11 inches
tall, a striking pair of Boch vases designed by Catteau. (e-mail
Jack for a price)
|
(O) Brilliantly worked, signed
RS (R. Sitoleux), this French dinanderie (pewter) vase has great
authority, and stands 10 inches high, 9 across. (e-mail
Jack for a price)
