Pair of patinated terracotta vases – Art Nouveau style

Elegant pair of terracotta vases, featuring a beautiful dark brown-black patina with antique nuances. In baluster shape, they have a generous body adorned with vertical flutes, resting on a circular base decorated with a frieze of gadroons. The upper part, particularly original, is animated by two large circular openings forming handles and a neck with soft, flowing lines. The highly stylized design fully evokes the Art Nouveau aesthetic of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. They have a beautiful decorative presence and interesting symmetry when presented as a pair. Period: around 1900. Material: patinated terracotta. Height: 36 cm. Sold as a pair.
