About the Item

An Iznik-style vase made by Edmé Samson et Cie after a 16th-century Turkish bottle vase in the collection of the Musée d'Ecouen. The vase’s bulbous body is decorated in a red, cobalt blue, turquoise, and green floral design of saz leaves, roses, and tulips. The neck is decorated with delicate floral sprays. The design is highlighted with gilding throughout, and is intentionally sparse around the turquoise area of the neck to mimic the wear of the 16th-century vase after which it was modelled. As with many other Samson Iznik-style wares, this vase is marked with the Arabic equivalent to the letter ‘S’, further adding to the vase’s playful exoticism. Dimensions: 14 in. H x 7 in. Dm at widest point (35.6 cm H x 17.8 cm Dm) Condition: Very good. Light wear to gilding. Two areas of chipping to red enamels on body, each measuring about 0.7 cm. References: Musée d'Ecouen, n°E.Cl.8397 Bonhams, 30 Apr 2019, Lot 37.
