Cavorting lion motif on body and stylized floral motif etching on rim. A stunning bronze vase, hand forged and decorated in a Etruscan style, reminiscent of the Etruscan Revival of the 18th and 19th centuries.
“Etruscomania” developed in 18th and 19th century Europe as archaeological expeditions unearthed Etruscan tombs. Jewelry, art, and sculptural elements inspired by the newly rediscovered artifacts became incredibly popular. This particular vase is modeled after Etruscan vessels made of bucchero, a black glossy ceramic intended to resemble more expensive metals.
10.4"H x 9" Diam (6" at base)
Possibly Italian, 18th Century
