Vaas met bolvormig lichaam, lange rechte hals en uitstaande mondrand c. 1880 - 1920

This small, bulbous vase, created by Dutch pottery studio De Porceleijne Fles between 1880 and 1920, showcases a distinctive folk art aesthetic. The vase is adorned with hand-painted decorations, including a prominent bird perched on a leafy branch, along with other stylized floral motifs and geometric patterns. The vibrant colors and whimsical designs, executed in a naive style, are characteristic of the studio's production, which is recognized for its charming and colorful ceramics. This vase, now in the collection of the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the beauty and simplicity of Dutch folk art.
