Italian Maiolica Tulip Vase in the Cantagalli Style, Renaissance Revival Faience Tulipière, Late 19th Century 10.2"
Italian Maiolica Tulip Vase in the Cantagalli Style, Renaissance Revival Faience Tulipière, Late 19th Century 10.2"
An Italian maiolica tulip vase decorated in the Renaissance revival style, likely dating to the late 19th century. The sculptural form features five flared spouts rising from a central stem above a shaped base, designed for displaying individual tulip stems or small flowers.
The vase is richly painted with grotesque ornament and scrolling foliage in cobalt blue, green, yellow and manganese tones on a tin-glazed ground. Mythical creatures and stylised botanical motifs reflect the influence of Renaissance maiolica, a style revived in Florence during the late 19th century by workshops such as Cantagalli.
Crafted in tin-glazed earthenware, this decorative tulipière combines sculptural form with vibrant hand-painted decoration and makes a striking display piece for flowers or as part of a collection of antique ceramics.
