California Arts & Crafts Handwrought Copper Vase/circa 1910 Van Erp-stickley Era For Sale
California Arts and Crafts Hammered Copper Vase Unsigned - Circa 1910
Reddish-Brown Patina & Four Handles
~ please scroll down for more photos ~
Nice old Arts and Crafts hand hammered Arts and Crafts vase, circa 1910 and in the style of Dirk Van Erp, but unsigned.
Found in Northern California.
SIZE:
Height - 7.5" / Width - 9"
Weight - 2 lbs 15 oz.
This large arts and crafts copper vase features and outwardly rolled rim, four applied handles, a classic form and a raised foot. The applied patina is a very nice, rich reddish - Chocolate brown, probably original to the piece (in my opinion).
The copper has been beautifully crafted into this difficult shape to form and the maker was obviously no amateur coppersmith. It may have been made by someone who once worked for Van Erp as it has the same type of 'spotted' or 'dimpled' bottom (see photos) and the hammering style that that many Dirk Van Erp pieces have. Harry Dixon, August Tiesselinck, Agatha Van Erp, and others made pieces similar to this, however I am not able to definitely attribute the piece to a specific maker or individual since it is not signed and I have not seen another just like it.
The four handles are unusual and the design may be a clue as to the maker.
This piece is in very good condition with some slight wear to the patina, a few dark or small green spots on the body and wear to the bottom of the foot. No dents or other damage.
PLEASE NOTE :
The low opening offer, with , is not meant to reflect upon the actual monetary value of the piece. My sales are structured this way to encourage offerding and to allow the final sale price to be determined by the buyers.
