Two Handled Vase by Mettlach

A striking Art Nouveau vase by Mettlach, produced by Villeroy and Boch around 1900. This piece features a deep cobalt blue ground with geometric and floral decoration in ochre, turquoise and gilt tones, finished with twin sculptural handles and a flared rim. The decoration and form are classic of Mettlach’s Jugendstil period production, known for its rich matte glazes, precise detailing and architectural symmetry. The base is clearly marked Mettlach, Villeroy and Boch, impressed with model numbers and the date mark 1900, confirming its early 20th century origin. This is a substantial decorative piece with strong presence, ideal as a standalone object or incorporated into a layered interior. The surface shows light age-appropriate wear consistent with its age, with no major damage noted. A well documented and collectible example of German Art Nouveau ceramics from one of the most respected makers of the period.
