Polish Pottery Fluted Vase in Peacock and Floral Pattern

This item is a decorative ceramic vase, likely Polish pottery due to its distinctive style, hand-painted patterns, and characteristic colors. The vase has a flared, fluted rim, suggesting a scalloped or wavy edge, and tapers downwards to a slightly wider base. Its primary colors are a rich cobalt blue, cream, and shades of orange, red, and green. The top and bottom sections feature a dense, stippled or 'peacock eye' pattern in dark blue on a lighter blue background, creating a textured visual effect. The middle section of the vase showcases a hand-painted floral design against a cream background, with prominent orange/red flowers, green leaves, and smaller accents in yellow or gold, outlined in a darker color, possibly black or dark brown. A thin border with small yellow/gold dots on a blue or brown line separates the patterned sections. The glaze appears glossy, and the pottery itself looks substantial, indicating good quality stoneware or ceramic. There are no readily visible cracks, chips, or significant wear, suggesting it is in good to excellent condition. The craftsmanship appears artisanal, characterized by the traditional Polish pottery aesthetic which often involves stamping and hand-painting techniques. The estimated age would likely be contemporary to mid-20th century, as this style has been popular for a considerable period. Its unique hand-decorated surface and vibrant coloration make it a distinctive decorative piece.
