Antique Rosari Vase

Being offered on this auction is porcelain vase made by Rosenthal China, Selb, Bavaria, Germany. It is in Art Nouveau (Jugendstil) style. It is made in variation of 'Rosari' décor. Well-reputed Danish painter Julius-Vilhelm Guldbrandsen  (1869 - 1960) designed this pattern in c. 1917. Guldbrandsen worked for Rosenthal from 1909 to 1924. In 1910 he became head of the newly founded Rosenthal Art Department. In 1924 he switched to Hutschenreuther, also in the position of the Art Department head. He designed for them few vases as well as Christmas plates. For Rosenthal he also designed three Christmas plates. First of all he created the first ever Rosenthal Christmas plate of 1910 and then in 1915 and 1916. Through the introduction of new coloring techniques and the 'Rosari' motifs he decisively created the brand image of Rosenthal products. Almost all of his porcelain designs are in blue tones.
