This sophisticated pair of Italian Art Deco wooden vases, perfectly capturing the glamour and geometric elegance of the early 20th century. Expertly turned from solid wood and finished with a high-gloss lacquer, these vessels showcase a masterful faux marble technique that mimics the luxurious look of veined stone while retaining the warmth and lightweight nature of timber. The striking color palette features a creamy beige body swirled with abstract emerald and forest green veining, contrasted by deep, dark green sections that ground the design. The silhouette is classically Art Deco, characterized by a flared trumpet neck that tapers into a bulbous center before resting on a structured, architectural pedestal. Gilded gold rings separate the distinct tiers, adding a touch of opulence and emphasizing the verticality of the form. The vases stand on sturdy, stepped octagonal bases, a hallmark of the geometric style of the era, ensuring both stability and visual weight. As authentic vintage pieces, they exhibit a genuine patina that tells the story of their history. There is visible surface wear, including scuffs and chipping around the rims and edges which reveal the natural wood beneath the lacquer, adding to their antique character rather than detracting from their appeal. These statuesque vases would make a dramatic statement flanking a mantelpiece, adorning a library console, or serving as a centerpiece in a refined entryway.
