The main body of the vase depicting raised mask style heads of Classical Bacchic gods (gods of wine) with grape and vine leaf decoration with acanthus leaf below, all supported on a socle with gilt bronze base Marked with the Achille Collas seal. Achille Collas (1795-1859) was an important French engineer and inventor who developed a way of mechanically copying sculptures on a reduced scale, a process he called “réduction méchanique” or mechanical reproduction. The resultant popularization of small sculptures and statues literally transformed the bronze industry. He perfected his mechanical reproduction machine in 1836, and two years later formed his partnership with Barbedienne. The official seal of Collas is set into the base as shown below.A Collas is shown in side profile with reduction mecanique around the perimeter, and his name A. Collas below with the added word brevete meaning “patented.” The Warwick vase is an ancient Roman marble vase with Bacchic ornament that was discovered at Hadrian's Villa, Tivoli about 1771 by Gavin Hamilton, as Scottish painter-antiquarian and art dealer in Rome and is now inthe Burrell collection near Glasgow in Scotland.
