Art Nouveau Porcelain Wine Carafe: Bronze Mermaid Handle

Beautiful vintage European porcelain ewer/carafe featuring an ornate cast metal mermaid handle and delicate floral decoration throughout. This striking piece stands approximately 10 inches tall and showcases a graceful Art Nouveau-inspired design, with the sculpted mermaid forming the full handle from rim to base. The porcelain body is decorated with soft floral motifs and exhibits age-related crazing consistent with vintage porcelain, adding to its character and charm. The underside bears a crowned maker's mark with "1895" incorporated into the trademark. While the exact age and manufacturer are unknown, the piece appears to be a high-quality European decorative ewer with exceptional display appeal. The handle has a beautiful aged bronze/brass-toned patina and substantial weight. The porcelain is thick and well-made, and the overall condition is very good vintage condition with only minor wear consistent with age, about 10 inch tall. A wonderful addition for collectors of Art Nouveau décor, mermaid collectibles, European porcelain, mythological art, or unique statement pieces.
