As a designer of early on Fine art Deco forms and creator of geometrical decor, by the year 1910, he was best-selling as a pregnant designer to the indicate that he was able to sign pieces with his signature, something that the Zsolnay Mill discouraged. Three circles describe a true cat encircled by silverish eosin dots. Marbled and Eosin and glazes are used to color circles, triangles and Secession stylized decorations. The Eosin glazes include green, gold, red, blue, and purple. Well defined nevertheless subtle metallic Eosin colors highlight this decor.

Condition: scuffs consistent with employ and age and there appears to be a repaired lamp hole in the under base. The form of this vase was pressed by the creative person to create the indentations creating the random appearing form: actually a very modern and new fashion of presenting art pottery. Other artist such as George Ohr with his Biloxi Art Pottery was experimenting with this technique. He along with the Zsolnay Factory showroom at the 1904 St. Louis Exhibition and I would believe that Zsolnay possibly brought similar examples as this one to that exhibition. This glaze is an excellent example from a manufacturing plant whose specialty was metallic glazes. A similar example of this vase is pictured on page 52 of Richard Stattner and Monika Csiba's excellent book titled: "Zsolnay Masterpieces of the Hungarian Art Nouveau." From a Cape Cod private estate. Toll: $ane,500.00.

The inside of this bowl must take been used to hold personal temporary objects and shows some scuffing. Mayhap coins, etc. A pleasing form. Price: $650.00.
Item number 196. A Zsolnay Vase. Form number 1246. We believe that this form number relates to the Architectural Grade Books of the factory. We date this particular between 1910 and 1915.

Condition: as noted in the photos there is a glaze loss plus in several areas the coat did non completely adhere to the surface, hence white undersurface shows through. This is a singularly and unusual Zsolnay item. Nosotros believe that it may take a funereal connexion, perhaps even meant to be used equally a funereal urn. Architectural forms designed at the Zsolnay factory were created by some of the almost renowned designers and architects of the Austria-hungary. This severe example probably reflects the decor of the interior of a church, chapel or mausoleum. Toll: $750.00.
Item number 192. A rare Zsolnay double-necked vase. Designed for the Turin Exhibition of 1911 by Moric Pogany. Made of Porcelain Faience with metal eosin glazed.

Documented in literature (catalogues, price guides, etc.) Toll: $2,500.00.
