Zsolnay Eosin Iridescent Figural Woman Vase

This is an elegant ceramic pitcher or vase produced by the renowned Zsolnay factory in Pécs, Hungary. The item features a distinct Art Nouveau/Secessionist style, characterized by a tall, organic, horn-shaped vessel with a nude female figure gracefully leaning over the rim to peer inside. The piece is finished in Zsolnay's signature 'Eosin' glaze—a metallic, iridescent finish that exhibits a rich spectrum of green and golden hues with a pearlescent sheen. Physically, the vase stands approximately 6 to 8 inches tall and is constructed from fine porcelain masonry. The figural handle is seamlessly integrated into the body, demonstrating high-quality craftsmanship and fluid movement. While the exact production date is difficult to determine as Zsolnay has used these molds over several generations, the design reflects early 20th-century aesthetic ideals. The condition appears excellent with no visible chips, cracks, or repairs; however, typical of eosin glazes, there may be slight surface variations or minor handling marks that contribute to its unique patina. The base would likely feature the Five Churches (Pécs) tower stamp, though it is not visible in the frame. The accompanying paperwork confirms its provenance as an authentic Zsolnay piece from Hungary, showcasing the timeless high-art quality synonymous with the brand.
