Description:
The complex organic shape of this vase produced by the Johann Loetz Witwe company is characteristic of the designs just after the great success at the World Exhibition in Paris in 1900. The Loetz decor Cytisus is very refined and artistic and shows how exceptional the quality of the productions of Johann Loetz Witwe in this period were.
This Cytisus vase is executed in ground color “May-green” and has randomly drawn in a wave pattern dark red threads of glass with iridescent dots. The complex organic shape and the indentations on the body show that this object was very artfully free-formed by the glassblower.
