The piece features a sculptural rectangular form with softly rounded shoulders and a square mouth, giving it a bold architectural presence.

A series of stylized herons in relief gracefully encircle the lower portion of the vase, their elegant silhouettes rendered in polished golden bronze against a contrasting dark brown patina. The birds’ rhythmic movement evokes both serenity and motion, typical of Art Deco’s fascination with nature and geometry. The upper section has a smooth, deep bronze finish with subtle variations in tone that highlight its age and artisanal character.
