Description

The undulating surface of this diminutive vase creates arch-like motifs that are ornamented with wavy lines of iridescent purple and gold. Dark purple pools beneath the arches suggest depth and distance, while in the foreground, ochre seaweed reaches upward. Marks: painted glaze, Clement Massier, Golfe-Juan, L Levy
