On-Track for Spring


 

Stangl Art Deco Two-Handled Greek Revival Urn with Matte Yellow Glazing (LEO Design)

 

True, we are still weeks away from Spring—precisely two months from today—but tiny signs of that blessed season occasionally emerge before us: a muddy squish, an earthy smell, the tender, emerging daffodil buds (already!).  Therefore, eager for the promise of Spring, we present this exceptionally sunny Art Deco vase, made in the Thirties by Stangl of Flemington, New Jersey.  The form is inspired by Ancient Greek amphora—the bulbous form, corseted neck and flaring rim, punctuated with drooping acanthus leaf handles.  And the deep yellow glaze seems to radiate sunshine.  Displayed with or without flowers, this vase is sure to be a happy reminder of lovely days—Spring and Summer especially.  Click on the photo above to learn more about it.
