Adorable small vase in glazed ceramic in milk chocolate colour with finely executed decoration, consisting of drips in different colours (ecru, green, and black). These patterns are typical of Troyan ceramics (sometimes written as Troyen, Troyon, or Trojan), a region in the Balkans (now Bulgaria). They vary slightly in colour or shape depending on the artisan who created them, as each had their own pattern that served as a signature. This vase can hold a small bouquet of flowers or complement a collection of mini ceramics, which is welcome because, as enthusiasts know, ceramic collections can quickly take up a lot of space. It is difficult to date as ceramics with these typical patterns are still being made today, many families own them, primarily for food use, such as dishes and casseroles... However, I was told it dates back to a trip to the Balkans in the 70s or 80s. It is in perfect condition, with no defects to report. It measures 7 cm in height and approximately 6.5 cm in maximum diameter.
