Stunting antique finding - tall white vase, hand carved in period around 1900s of alabaster and highly polished (except the external bottom).
The purest alabaster - as this vase / jar is made of - is white and somewhat translucent, which makes it a beautiful material for carvings and delicate sculptures.
Impurities such as iron oxide or rust, produce spidery veins as can be seen on pictures. We can’t imagine a nicer contrast with white, which actually reflects the extremely high age of this artwork.
The jar has been owned for the fourth generation, which runs a guest house. We were told that in the past, homemade ice cream was stored in this extremely thick container, as it kept the temperature low due to its extraordinary thickness.
Adorable and timeless jar would be perfect ice bucket, wine cooler or even a vase, which would highlight any kind of modern interior. Your order will be dispatched with tracking number and fully insured!
Photo props are not included in the price :)
