Remarkable Art Nouveau vase from the Royal Dux Bohemia factory, circa 1900-1915. This piece features a majestic stag sculpted in a medallion, surrounded by pine cones and foliage delicately enhanced with gold. The naturalistic iconography and the ivory-gold palette are emblematic of the Jugendstil movement. The architecturally structured shape with sinuous handles and the richness of the relief decoration make it a characterful piece, ideal for an elegant interior or a collection.
