    What number of pieces can form a collection? I do not know. We have only three jardinieres or cachepots or planters Eichwald. The biggest one was purchased last week to Julio Cein, the son of the person that taught Sergio about sterling. It was his birthday an it was a self present for only 20 U$. It is huge as you can see in relationship to the others, that I will post later, 27 cm of diameter and 20 cm height. It is Jugendstil or Art Deco? Possibly it is a transition pattern. On the web there are several, at list three similar models

    It was funny because Julio insisted it was English although it is clearly marked “Made in Czechoslovakia”. Searching for the history to put something here I found a wonderful blog in french
    http://artnouveaujugendstil.blogspot.com.ar/2012/01/ceramiques-autrichiennes.html
    There it can be read that “En 1864, Anton Tschinkel fonde une manufacture de majolique à Dubi. En 1874, elle commence la fabrication de porcelaine. Après la crise des années 1880, la fabrique est rachetée par Teichert qui vient de Meissen. En 1895, la manufacture est de nouveau cédée à Bernhard Bloch qui va la développer et en faire une des manufactures les plus importantes du pays. Les pieces sont gravées des initiales BB ou du nom Eichwald, selon qu'elles sont en faïence mate ou en majolique. Elle est confisquée par les nazis en 1939, puis nationalisée en 1947. Elle est toujours en activité.
    Les formes des faïences Bernhard Bloch sont très marquées par l'esthétique de l'Art Nouveau. Elles optent pour une plus grande simplification qu'Amphora ou Royal Dux. Le répertoire des couleurs est assez restreint : ocre, vert, gris-bleu, crème.
    A partir de 1905, les majoliques prennent des formes moins baroques et se rapprochent de la Sécession viennoise. On arrive à une certaine austérité. Vers 1910, sous l'influence du designer Carl Klimt (1876-1945), la manufacture oriente la fabrication vers des pièces très inspirés par Michael Powolny.”
    Thus this big cachepot must have been done influenced Carl Klimt because of the color combination and simple forms thus could be say it is an early Art Deco.
