ABOUT PRODUCTID 13185
This pair of Art Nouveau amphorae, produced by the French Unis manufactory in the early 20th century, is crafted from brass in a warm, medium golden brown shade with subtle tonal transitions and areas of gently mottled patina. The surfaces combine a satin to semi-matte finish, featuring a distinct hammered texture across the body contrasted by the smoother, softly reflective necks and rims. Each vessel is adorned in the middle with a raised band of stylized floral and foliate ornamentation: the flowing, organic lines are quintessentially French Art Nouveau, encircling the form in rhythmic harmony. The proportions are thoughtfully balanced, with a lightly flared mouth, softly graduated shoulders, and an elegantly tapering silhouette that underscores the object’s architectural cohesion. The hammered finish introduces visual depth and a tactile element. Visible signs of age and use—spotty discoloration, gentle abrasions, slight dents, and irregular dulling—attest to their authenticity, with the original patina left intact and no traces of modern restoration.
