This design was influenced by the renowned Kunstaardewerk Rozenburg and applied to the successful eggshell porcelain style. However, unlike the fragile eggshell porcelain, this South Holland vase is crafted with a thicker shard and a different clay composition, giving it a sturdier feel. Early production of this vase, between 1907 and 1910, involved time-consuming decoration techniques, which later evolved as the filling techniques changed, with the curved lines eventually disappearing from the process.<\/p>\n
The form of the vase and its applied decoration complement and enrich each other, making it a wonderful example of Dutch Art Nouveau. This piece is a testament to the artistic innovation and craftsmanship of the South Holland factory during this period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
