These vases are chic. This is a vintage set dating from the 20th century.
One is marked DEC 739.
They are hexagonal in shape and the intricate decoration that embellishes their exterior really catches the eye, being full of blue designs and images that barely show through the white background.
The decorations are divided into panels, one on each side of the vase.
The bases of the pieces and the parts that run immediately under the vases' necks are decorated in the same way: they bear abstract motifs with always the same flower in the center. The necks are similarly decorated, but the abstract motifs and flowers are slightly different.
The most attractive part is surely the central body: it's the largest and its six panels are decorated with oriental motifs, framed by wide, lighter stripes and with beautiful images of geishas at the top.
There are two different images repeated alternately, making a total of three portraits of each geisha in each vase.
The women are dressed in traditional kimonos and their hairstyles are equally classic. Their portraits show only their heads and shoulders: one of them has her back to the viewer and turns her head backwards, while the other looks to the left and rests her face on her hand, looking pensive and introspective.
These images are evocative and delicate, making this pair of vases an attractive set that will undoubtedly stand out in the most elegant room.
One is in good condition and unfortunately the other has been broken, reglued and is missing.
