The Story:
This stunning mantle vase features a dramatic, elongated "gondola" silhouette, characteristic of Mid-Century Modern brutalist design. The exterior is defined by a deeply embossed, vertical "bark" style texture that gives the piece a tactile, organic quality.
A superb minimal piece, the glaze is highlighted by a gorgeous, almost metallic charcoal to deep bronze finish, with subtle variegated tones that catch the light along the ridges of the texture. The base has an incised mold number (1225) that we believe is by Beswick, though it's not 100% confirmed.
The Details:
• Shape: Pedestal-base boat/gondola vase.
• Texture: Relief-molded "Tree Bark" or "Flame" pattern.
• Color: Slightly metallic Black thru Oil-Rubbed Bronze.
• Markings: Incised with model number 1225 on the base - likely Beswick
• Style: Mid-Century Modern / Art Deco.
• Dimensions: 30cm W x 13.5cm H (at tallest) x 11.5cm D
• Condition: The piece presents in excellent vintage condition with no visible cracks or chips to the flared rims. Minor shelf wear is present on the unglazed foot rim, consistent with age.
