A pair of large decorative vases by Carla Holland, Gouda decoration, circa 1930-40.

Beautiful pair of large decorative ceramic vases signed by Carla Holland, Dutch work from around 1930-40 in the style of Gouda productions, hand-painted decoration with strong contrasts of cobalt blue, yellow, and green. Elegant bulbous shapes with slightly flared necks, very decorative and colourful pieces, typical of late Dutch Art Deco productions. 26.3 cm in height with a maximum diameter of 18 cm. One is in good condition with a fairly discreet chip at the base, while the second has a significant old restoration at the neck, mainly on the inside, slightly visible on the outside, with a hairline crack around the edge; the overall appearance remains visually coherent and dates from the same series. Approximately 1,500-2 kg per piece.
