I'm not sure if this is really from the Art Nouveau period. I also don't know if the photo of the inside of the vase offers up any information. No other images of this vase on Google. Stands 11 1/2" high. The patina: natural, or applied? No marks anywhere. I cleaned off a small area on the bottom to see what color the copper is, and it's definitely gold colored. I bought it because I liked it.
All info happily accepted.
Thanks to all,
Bonnie
Beautiful vase!!!
I think it is bronze, and 1915/1920 era seems reasonable. :-)
In the spririt of this one:

kyra - I also think it's bronze, but have been told that yellow copper doesn't qualify as bronze. It is supposed to be red copper. I thought bronze can be red or yellow copper. I also know that a bronze piece like this would have rings on the bottom. That's difficult for me to see because of the patina.
No idea....but it looks fantastic!
