Description
The handle of this elegant vessel terminates in the head of an animal, perhaps a hound or a fox. That is the only concession to decoration the piece makes: otherwise it maintains an unbroken simplicity of line that is immensely appealing to the modern eye. Time has added an emerald patina that lends the vase a new visual dimension, transforming what was once a functional object into a work of art. - (FZ.038)
