Cameo Girls Head Vase: Celeste 1924 "Harlem Renaissance" LV-040 NIB 2001. Approximately 16.5 cm (or 6.5") tall. With its original sticker saying: CAMEO GIRLS Lady Vases, LV-040 2001 EDITION, 1924, Celeste, HARLEM RENAISSANCE, UNITED DESIGN CORPORATION. Also with its original retail sticker saying the company is based in Noble, OK, USA and that the piece was made in China. Marked under the cameo on the back 2000 UDC.

This piece comes with its original glass insert, as well as its original box, with Styrofoam. The box's condition is decent. The vase itself is in spectacular condition with no signs of damage. A stunning addition to any collection.

Cameo Girls were a product line of United Design Corp. (who were later acquired and became a part of Encore). The bases were cast from bonded porcelain--a very dense resin--with production taking place in China. The casts were then shipped to America, where they individually hand painted by artists working for this company (extraneous jewelry and accessories were also added at this stage). These are NOT recreations of the original 1950s head vases, but are rather their own orignal series. Please note how small the opening if for the flowers, which is a common characteristic of these types of head vases.
