Pair Gouda Holland Hand-Painted Ceramic Vases, Floral Black Gold
A matched pair of Gouda Holland hand-painted ceramic vases, each marked on the base with the crown Gouda hallmark and 'GOUDA HANDPAINTED' along with individual artist codes (VIII/AS and RA III). The vases feature a beautifully mottled celadon and pale yellow ground with bold black floral and leaf motifs accented in gold. The neck and base are banded in deep glossy black with a burgundy-red pinstripe accent, and each vase sits on a polished gold-tone foot ring. The interiors are glazed in a clean celadon-white. Each vase stands approximately 8 to 9 inches tall based on proportions visible in photos. The pair presents well together with closely matched decoration, though minor variations between the two are consistent with hand-painted production. Mild wear is visible at the rim edges and foot rings on both pieces, consistent with age and use. No chips or cracks are visible in the photos.
