This refined, collectible vase of Austrian origin is attributed to the renowned Josef Strnact factory (active in Turn-Teplitz since 1881). This piece captures all the charm of Imperial Vienna in the early 1900s.
Craftsmanship and Style: The vase bears the "JS" mark on the base, a signature of Strnact, renowned for its artistic majolica emulating the luxurious style of "Royal Vienna." The piece features an intense Cobalt Blue glaze, enhanced by luminous pure gold trim on the double scroll handles and the central frame.
Subject: At the center, a large medallion depicts a gallant scene in Neoclassical style: two female figures (Muses or allegories) in classical attire, portrayed on a flower-filled terrace. The decoration combines a high-quality silkscreen base with hand-painted finishes.
Material and Patina: Made of glazed ceramic/majolica. As a guarantee of its authenticity and age, the surface features a clear and uniform "craquelé" effect (a fine spiderweb in the glaze), a typical patina of antique ceramics from this period.
Technical Details and Condition:
· Manufacturer: Josef Strnact (Turn-Teplitz, Austria).
· Period: Antique (Early 20th Century).
· Style: Art Nouveau / Royal Vienna Style.
· Materials: Glazed earthenware, gold.
· Dimensions: Width 27 cm - Depth 23 cm - Height 35 cm.

Decorating Notes: A striking decorative piece, ideal for enhancing a fireplace, a crystal display cabinet, or a dark wood console table, where the cobalt blue will stand out in all its elegance. This piece has an attribution mark,
