Item # 76. A Zsolnay vase. Form number 8385 which dates this vase to 1910. Size: 7.5" tall. Marks: round raised factory mark and incised form numbers. Condition: scuffs to the glaze consistent with use and age. Red circular drops against a yellow background; ovoid shape. We are not aware of another similiar glaze. We suspect that this particular firing if adjusted or altered would have resulted in what is known as a peacock glaze with blue/green eosin colors. P.O.R.
The circles denote glaze abrasions
The round raised Zsolnay factory mark and the incised form number dating this vase to 1910.
