Antique Moroccan Fez Blue & White Ceramic Footed Vase with Filigree Metal Overlay, Early 20th Century. Dimensions: 10 in. x 14 inc. H. A striking antique Moroccan ceramic footed vase handcrafted in the historic city of Fez (Fès), renowned for producing some of Morocco's finest pottery for centuries. Dating to the early 20th century, this impressive vessel beautifully combines the celebrated ceramic traditions of Fez with the intricate artistry of Moroccan metalwork. Wheel-thrown from high-quality earthenware, the vase is decorated in the iconic "Bleu de Fès" palette, featuring richly painted cobalt blue floral and geometric motifs set against a luminous crackled white glaze. This distinctive blue-and-white decoration has long been associated with the master potters of Fez and reflects centuries of Andalusian, Moorish, and Islamic artistic influence. The ceramic body is enhanced by an elaborate handcrafted filigree metal overlay, composed of finely worked white metal and brass elements that wrap gracefully around the neck, body, handles, and pedestal foot. Decorative embossed bands, intricate openwork, and circular ring handles create a sophisticated interplay between ceramic and metal, showcasing the remarkable craftsmanship of Moroccan artisans. Its elegant baluster form, raised pedestal base, and twin ring handles evoke the refined decorative objects once found in traditional Moroccan riads and palaces. Originally created as an ornamental vase for displaying flowers or simply admired as a work of art, today it remains a stunning statement piece for both traditional and contemporary interiors. Rich in history and craftsmanship, this vase complements Moorish, Mediterranean, Spanish Colonial, Islamic, Hollywood Regency, Global, and Bohemian interiors, making it equally desirable for collectors and interior designers.

Antique Moroccan Fez Hand-Carved Ceramic Vase with Arabic Calligraphy, Early 20th Century A remarkable hand-sculpted Moroccan ceramic vase from the historic pottery city of Fez (Fès), celebrated for centuries as the cultural and artistic heart of Moroccan ceramics. This impressive vessel showcases the timeless beauty of Moorish craftsmanship, featuring an earthy dark brown to black clay body meticulously hand-carved with flowing Arabic calligraphy highlighted in contrasting ivory tones. The richly textured surface is entirely hand-incised with elegant Arabic script, inspired by the architectural decoration found throughout the Islamic world. The intricate calligraphy recalls the magnificent inscriptions adorning the walls, arches, and courtyards of the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain, reflecting the enduring artistic dialogue between Morocco and Al-Andalus. Whether composed of poetry, blessings, or ornamental inscriptions, the calligraphy transforms this vessel into a sculptural work of Islamic art. The vase features a generous flared mouth with a lightly glazed interior and is flanked by two distinctive ribbed side handles, each carefully hand-carved to complement the vessel's architectural form. Its bold silhouette and richly textured surface make it equally striking displayed alone or as a statement vessel for large floral arrangements. Handcrafted using traditional techniques passed down through generations of Fez artisans, this exceptional vase embodies the artistry and cultural heritage of Moroccan pottery. It complements Moorish, Mediterranean, Spanish Colonial, Islamic, Organic Modern, Wabi-Sabi, Global, and Bohemian interiors.
