Petite Sculptural Solid Pewter Vase by Metaalwarenfabriek , Holland, c. 1960s

About the Item

This delicate sculptural vase by Metawa exemplifies the modernist elegance of mid-century design from the 1960s. Crafted in Holland from solid pewter, the piece features a slender, elongated form with a gracefully curved handle and a subtly flared spout, creating a fluid silhouette that balances functionality with artistry. The polished pewter surface catches the light, highlighting the vase’s smooth contours and organic shape, a testament to Metawa’s dedication to quality craftsmanship. Founded in 1923 in Tiel, Holland, Metaalwarenfabriek Metawa specialized in pewter and brass objects, producing collectible pieces until their closure in 1985. Perfect as a standalone decorative accent or a petite vessel for a single bloom, this vase is a refined addition to any collector’s assemblage or modernist interior, capturing the era’s fascination with sleek materials and sculptural forms. ---Dimensions--- Width: 2.25 in / 5.72 cm Depth: 1.5 in / 3.81 cm Height: 6.25 in / 15.88 cm This splendid, petite vase is in 100% original, vintage condition. The solid hand-forged pewter is in very good shape for it's age and given the softness of the metal with some nicks and scratches (which can be seen clearly in the photos provided). This elegant little vase is functional, structurally sound and ready for lifetimes more of use. Please view all photos for details on this vase's current condition.
