Set of 3 Empoli Vases Hobnail Pattern Cased Glass Mid Century
Located in Bad Säckingen, DE
The set of three different Empoli vases with a hobnail pattern showcases the charm and craftsmanship of mid-century Italian glassmaking. Empoli is a region in Tuscany, Italy, renowned for its long tradition of producing high-quality glassware. Each vase in the set boasts a distinctive hobnail pattern, which consists of small, rounded, and raised glass beads covering the surface in a regular and decorative arrangement. This textured pattern adds a delightful tactile element to the vases, enhancing their visual appeal. The vases are made using the cased glass technique, where several layers of different colored glass are fused together. In this case each vase consists of three layers, translucent outer and inner layer in red, violet and ochre and an opaque white middle layer. This process creates a mesmerizing depth of color, as the light interacts with the multiple glass layers. The set includes three vases of varying heights and shapes, offering a dynamic and versatile display. The mid-century design aesthetic prevalent in this era is likely reflected in the vases' sleek and elegant silhouettes. The colors chosen for the vases, including red, violet, and ochre, are evocative of the warm and vibrant hues commonly associated with mid-century decor. These colors not only add a touch of nostalgia but also create a bold and captivating visual impact. Empoli glassware...

SCHEURICH RED 70s FAT LAVA FLOOR VASE West Germany 1970s marked 284-47
Located in Landshut, BY
a striking RED FAT LAVA FLOOR VASE no. 284-47 by SCHEURICH Scheurich originated from a joint venture initiated in 1928 by Alois Scheurich and his cousin Fridolin Greulich in the small town of Schneeberg, situated near the Czech border in Saxony. The venture involved the wholesaling of glass, porcelain, and ceramics. In 1938, the business was relocated to the market community of Kleinheubach in the northeast corner of Bavaria. Ten years later, the partners initiated the production of household ceramics, which were sold under the name Scheurich & Greulich. In 1954, the partnership was dissolved, and Alois proceeded to establish Scheurich GmbH & Co. KG proceeded to continue production independently. In 1955, the celebrated designer Heinz Siery was recruited by Scheurich as the company's lead form designer. In addition to designing an extensive range of shapes, he played a pivotal role in developing a successful overarching production strategy. This strategy involved producing a wide array of simple forms that could be produced cheaply and decorated in a variety of glazes. This resulted in the creation of a diverse and economically adaptable range of pieces. This approach proved to be entirely successful, resulting in Scheurich's ascendency in the market by the late 1960s. The company's strategy of maintaining low prices in conjunction with an extensive range of appealing designs resulted in significant sales, with millions of units sold annually. The designs were adapted twice a year to align with changing consumer preferences. Scheurich's product range included vases and flowerpots, in addition to ashtrays, piggy banks, candle stands, beer mugs, buffet clocks, wall reliefs and Christmas tree holders...

Antique, New and Vintage Vases and Vessels

For thousands of years, vases and vessels have had meaningful functional value in civilizations all over the world. In Ancient Greece, ceramic vessels were used for transporting water and dry goods, holding bouquets of flowers, for storage and more. Outside of utilitarian use, in cities such as Athens, vases were a medium for artistic expressionpottery was a canvas for artists to illustrate their cultures’ unique people, beliefs and more. And pottery skills were handed down from fathers to sons.

Every antique and vintage vase and vessel, from decorative Italian urns to French 19th-century Louis XVI–style lidded vases, carries with it a rich, layered story. 

On 1stDibs, there is a vast array of vases and vessels in a variety of colors, sizes and shapes. Our collection features vessels made from delicate materials such as ceramic and glass as well as durable materials like rustproof metals and stone.

A contemporary vase can help introduce an air of elegance to your minimalist space while an antique Chinese jar would make a luxurious addition to an Asian-inspired interior. Alternatively, if you’re looking for a statement piece, consider an Art Deco vase crafted by Italian architect and furniture designer Gio Ponti.

Vases and vessels — be they handmade pots, handblown glass wine bottles or otherwise — are versatile, practical decorative objects, and no matter your particular design preferences, furniture style or color scheme, they can add beauty and warmth to any home. Find yours on 1stDibs today.
