Vintage Soliflore Vase Gien Pivoine
This is a vintage small vase from Gien Faience, Pivoine series.
From the venerable French ceramics manufacturer, Gien Faience, comes a breathtakingly beautiful vintage small vase.
The motif is "Pivoine" (Peony), one of Gien's most famous and luxurious series.
On this small vase, richly colored peonies, hand-painted by skilled artisans, bloom boldly yet delicately, like an oil painting on canvas.
The contrast created by the deep bordeaux, yellow, and vibrant blue exudes a vintage presence unique to its era, instantly elevating any space.
An adorable form that fits anywhere.
The charming form with two handles, reminiscent of ancient Greek amphorae, is also appealing.
Its compact size, with a height of only about 10.5cm and a diameter of about 7cm, allows it to be casually placed in various locations such as an empty space on a bookshelf, a windowsill, an entryway, or a dresser, transforming the area into a sophisticated French-chic interior.
It can be used as a single-flower vase or simply displayed as an object without flowers, making for a picturesque display.
Condition: Craquelure is present, and there is a hairline crack from the rim, though it is not very noticeable. Otherwise, there are no chips or cracks, and it has a beautiful appearance.
Dimensions (maximum): Diameter approx. 7cm x Height approx. 10.5cm
