About the Item
Pair Large Austrian Green Gold Art Nouveau Jugendstil Glass Gilt Metal Vases
Austrian, c. 1910
Height 49cm, diameter 16cm
Reflecting the innovative spirit of late 19th century Austrian craftsmanship, this elegant pair of vases is fashioned from lustrous iridescent glass paired with ornate gilt metal. Inspired by the acclaimed work of Loetz, a leading glass manufacturer of the era, these vases celebrate a rich artistic tradition that gained international acclaim following the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair.
The fascination with iridescent glass sparked by archaeological finds of ancient Roman glass led Loetz to perfect a technique that infused each piece with a magical, shifting colour palette. These vases draw from that legacy, showcasing the hallmarks of the Art Nouveau or Jugendstil style that flourished across Europe at the time.
Their graceful forms are enveloped in a deep blue-green hue, with the lower sections beautifully decorated in the signature ‘oil spot’ pattern. This effect, created by treating the glass with metallic salts and acids either during or after production, results in a captivating surface that changes in tone and brilliance depending on the surrounding light.
Supporting each piece is a wide, flared base cast in gilt metal, finished with a subtle beaded border that gently complements the richness of the glass.
Visually striking and steeped in history, this refined duo is a fitting tribute to the artistry of Austria’s glassmaking pioneers and would make a sophisticated addition to any curated collection or decorative display.

Located in London, GB
Pair of important Russian gilt bronze and metal vases
Russian, circa 1820
Dimensions: Height 98cm, width 43cm, depth 38cm
This monumental pair of vases are exquisitely crafted in gilt bronze and metal. They both feature twin scrolled handles, which are decorated with leaves and foliate patterns, as well as classical profiles at the top. These touch the ormolu rims, which feature an egg and dart pattern.
The body of each vase is of ovoid form and features further ormolu mounts, including a thick band underneath the waisted neck, twin dog heads at the base of the handles, flowers, stars and more Classical masks with foliate scrolls. The vases are supported by square plinths, with socle form bases and decorations of fluted ribbing and scrolled foliate forms.
Heavily inspired by the neoclassical style, which was popular in Russia in the late 18th and 19th centuries, the vases are decorated with gilt bronze relief scenes which allude to motifs in classical mythology. On a rich burgundy ground, the metal body of the vases show figures flanked by palm trees.
One vase shows a woman dressed in a classical draped fabric garment playing two flutes and leaning on a pedestal with twirling ivy, while a baby stands...
