Description: Beautiful Art Nouveau / Jugenstil planter or jardiniere. I have seen this exact piece attributed to Vienna Austria, but suspect it could be French or Czech majolica. Definitely a well-crafted, hand-painted piece circa 1890 when Art Nouveau style was at its most fashionable. Body is a dusky aubergine with lavender trim and handles. Each side has an identical pattern of blue flowers, leaves, and cherries. Interior is a cream color. Hallmarks: No visible maker's marks. Remains of a printed hallmark are not legible. Impressed model number "10020 III". Artists roman number II painted. Also an incised cross. Approximate age: circa 1890 Dimensions: 12" wide x 5” long x 5.75” tall. Condition: Excellent giftable condition. No visible crazing or discoloration. Paint and glaze intact with good color and without scratches or erosion. No chips, flakes, breaks, mends, repairs, cracks, hairlines, blemishes, or mentionable boo-boo's. Don't feel anything amiss when I run finger around edges. No signs of previous repair or restoration. Unpacked weight: 1 lb. 12 oz. Always happy to pass through discounts on combined shipping. I only charge actual postage, and always use recycled packing materials.

The item listed is being sold as is, as pictured and as described to the best of my knowledge. All dimensions and weights approximate. If you have a question or an assumption on an item prior to purchase, please ask. I much prefer to take the time on the front end to make sure you will be satisfied with your purchase.Remember, when buying vintage expect imperfections as these items have a history and have been in the possession of others. I try to list EVERY flaw which would be commented on something in an antique or vintage condition – this does not mean all imperfections resulting from normal wear & use require comment. My goal is to have no rude surprises upon receipt.
