ABOUT PRODUCTID 16622
This vase, produced by Faiencerie de Jemappes in Belgium, is a noteworthy example of post-war decorative earthenware from the 1950s, showcasing neo-baroque influences. Standing 25 cm tall, the piece captivates with its balanced, two-handled profile. Each handle is lavishly gilded and sculpted in curling, stylized forms reminiscent of classical motifs, while the body features a deep raspberry pink, high-gloss glaze subtly merging into a yellow-gold gradient. Ornamental gilding envelops the rim, base, and central zones, highlighted by hand-painted scrollwork, stylized leaves, and a prominent prancing horse motif on both sides. The vessel’s surface is smooth and fully glazed, accentuated by vertical spiral fluting that enhances the play of reflected light. The original maker's mark remains on the base as confirmation of provenance. The vase is in good condition, with only minor wear to gilded sections consistent with its age, and shows no chips, cracks, or restoration. Its silhouette speaks to the refined post-war aesthetic—how the 1950s harnessed exuberance by melding historical ornament with a bolder, modern palette. The piece echoes the creative direction of Belgian workshops seeking a dialogue between tradition and innovation in the mid-20th century. The gilded handles conjure a sense of theatricality and harken back to the decorative flair of the baroque era, as though bearing not merely the vessel but a memory of ballroom elegance and artisanal pride. The central horse motif adds a sense of movement, referencing historical themes, while the intense glaze animates any surrounding light. One might pair this vase with classic wood veneers—set atop
