(A) Signed undulating WMF (German) vases with compelling, Modernist designs. They stand about 10 inches tall; and such a patina!! (e-mail Jack for a price)
|
 (B) Here we easily see why Longwy, with its superior esthetic, commands such a ready audience. This vase is about 10 inches high, 7 wide. (e-mail Jack for a price)

(C) How often do people actually show flowers in vases they're trying to sell!!? Well, in case you were wondering just how magnificent this vase might look with flowers it it, I just tossed some roses and dahlias in it to whet your appetite. The vase is hard-paste porcelain, by KPM, obviously rather Modernist in scope. It measures about 8 1/2 high and as wide. (e-mail Jack for a price)

 (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 Jack for a price)

 (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 Jack for a price)

 (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 Jack for a price)

 (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." Of course it's by the world-famous Kahler pottery company, don't you know!? It was used as a lamp base and there is a tiny, 1/4 inch diameter hole in the side, right at the bottom, which could easily be from the factory. I've plugged it for the moment, and it holds water just fine! (e-mail Jack for a price)

 (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 Jack for a price)
|
 (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)

(T) One very decorative
pair of Keramis ceramic vases from Belgium. These are exceptionally
tall, at 12 inches each. Mint condition!
