This is an elegant piece of Royal Copenhagen Faience or Art Pottery is in excellent condition.

The vase is from the Baca range decorated using a silk screening technique developed by Nils Thorsson and only used by a small number of artists at Royal Copenhagen. The technique allowed for a layering of patterns all merging in subtle colours.  Baca is latin for 'ring' and the name of the artist is shown within a ring to the underside of each piece. It is marked 726 for the pattern and 3259 for the shape. This particular piece has the same motifs as other vases in this shape but the colours are a rich caramel tan, white and blue.

As mentioned the piece is marked to the underside with the Baca circle inside of which is the Nils Thorsson mark. The Royal Copenhagen backstamp is present which is marked with a dash below the G in Copenhagen for 1969-1974.

This piece is a factory first and has no faults.

The vase stands 230mm tall and measures 57mm across the rim.
