Description

First up: vase marked 8063 on its unglazed base, stamped boldly 'Made in Czechoslovakia' — this stunner features a sculpted female bust with a short bobbed haircut, flanked by dramatic swept Art Deco fins that launch into a trumpet-shaped cornucopia top. The glaze is smooth and creamy ivory throughout, and aside from a tiny surface speck mid-body, she is holding her own beautifully.

Second vase, marked 8034 with a partially legible retailer sticker, is her mirror-image companion — same swooping lines, same chic bobbed lady gazing sideways, same glorious flared trumpet mouth — but this one shows visible crazing and a hairline crack along the upper horn, honestly giving her more character than most people you know. Together they make a matched pair that would anchor any Art Deco shelf, mantle, or collector's heart. The semi-D-shaped open tops and geometric stepped bases are quintessentially interwar European, likely produced between 1918 and 1938 during Czechoslovakia's golden age of decorative ceramics.
