Description

Sea life was a popular theme at the Fachschule Teplitz. On this vase, a faculty member or advanced student created a stylized underwater scene that employs the tentacles of a chambered nautilus as a 'necklace' and its spiral shell as a body ornament. Marks: stamped K.k. Fachschule Teplitz.
