About the Item

Ceramic vase by Danish artist Jens Petersen (1890–1956), executed in his signature red metallic glaze, renowned for its rich depth and subtle iridescence. This piece exemplifies Petersen’s mastery of Art Nouveau-inspired forms, with smooth, flowing lines and a sculptural presence that elevates it beyond functional ceramics. Petersen, who collaborated with Søren Kongstrand early in his career, was celebrated for his innovative glazing techniques and experimentation with metallic surfaces, creating luminous, jewel-like finishes.
