Italian Gilt Terracotta Vase

Description

Impressive Italian terracotta vase showcases a stately neoclassical silhouette, beautifully highlighted by a rich gilt finish and an elegant laurel leaf classical motif that gracefully encircles its shoulder. The large, sculptural vessel is flanked by two sturdy applied handles and features crisp linear fluting across the lower half of its form, a design element reminiscent of traditional Greco-Roman architectural columns. Marked made in Italy on base. Measuring approximately 20 1/2 in. H x 9 1/4 in. in diameter, the vase presents a wonderful, authentically aged aesthetic, exhibiting some surface abrasions with some areas of minimal loss.
