# 5133. An early form Zsolnay vase. Size: 11.5" or 21.5cm tall. Marks: Incised form number 578 / 0 / 35; no other marks. Not marked with the standard Zsolnay mark, but we guarantee that this is from the Zsolnay factory. A green gold marbled glaze. This vase made have been restruck many years after the form was first introduced. The form numbers indicates a production year of about 1873 but the glaze may be later. Condition: upper edge flake; two strange stain spots; upper flute glaze flake and one side appears to be very gold almost as if it was 'burnt' in the kiln. Anyways, it is a very pleasing form. Price on Request.
Note the gold glaze on one side of the vase with almost a burnt quality.
