This is a gorgeous antique vase marked AUSTRIA, hand paintedand signed by the artist BROWN on the bottom.Judging by the work this vase could have been decorated in an Art Studio.According to the Encyclopedia of Pickard China by A.B.Reed, there were in Chicago three China Decorating Studios led by three different Mrs. Brown between 1906 and 1913. This vase is a large 15 1/2" tall and 9" wide with handles.It is decorated on both sides with cascading purple flowers andg...reen foliage on an ivory background. The handles and the edge are heavily gilded.The vase is in very good antique condition with some wear on one of the handles and a hairline at the bottom that goes lightly upwards. The sound of the vase is very good, and it is not affected by the hairline. Looking with a light inside the vase I do not see it, so it seemssuperficial on the external glaze. This flaw is reflected in the price.A rare piece for your collection and a great decorating piece.Please take a look at my store for more antique hand painted vases.This piece will be shipped insured and double boxed.Pay Pal only and payment in 3 days.California residents pay 7.5% tax but they usually receive a shipping adjustment.
