✨ Description. Beautiful piece of earthenware with a crackled white glaze, typical of late 19th-century French and Italian production. The facial modeling is extremely precise, with the handles forming horns and vine leaves curling around the head. The symmetrical decoration evokes the spirit of Bacchus and the decorative arts of the 1900s. 🔍 Details. Material: crackled glazed earthenware. Period: circa 1900-1920. Dimensions: height 25 cm, width 31 cm, diameter 19 cm. Unsigned, but in the style of Sarreguemines, Vallauris, or Sèvres, with white decoration. 🎨 Condition. Good overall condition, glossy glaze with visible cracks typical of age. Minor wear from use, no chips or cracks. 🏛️ Context. This type of decorative ornamental vase, often called a "bacchante" or "faun, " adorned bourgeois interiors and artists' studios during the Belle Époque.
