This elegant antique porcelain vase features a romantic Art Nouveau portrait of a young maiden holding a bird, surrounded by soft pastels, floral accents, and two graceful gold-gilded handles. The design combines both transfer decoration and hand-painted detailing, with raised gold accents framing the image.

The body has a delicate celadon green and cream ground with ornate scrollwork and an iridescent luster glaze. The vase’s organic form, scalloped rim, and flowing lines are characteristic of the Art Nouveau style, popular in European porcelain between 1890 and 1915.

Condition:
Excellent antique condition with vivid colors and minimal wear to gilt. No visible cracks, chips, or repairs.

Collector’s Note:
Portrait vases of this era are highly collectible, especially with finely detailed maiden imagery. The combination of hand-applied gilding, ornate handles, and Art Nouveau design make this piece a standout for display.
