Egg-shaped vase with flattened mouth

Inventory number: DP 36

Neck finished with a yellow stripe on a black ground. Foot emphasised with a fourfold stripe: yellow, orange, brown and black. From the neck to about halfway down the body, a black surface with an edge of pronounced curls serves as the background for several flowers of different species, painted in a very naturalistic style. Their leaves reach stick out of the black surface, as does a stem supporting a white orchid, surrounded by a scattered pattern of dots in different colours, on the lower part of the body.
