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 870 for the pattern and 2885 for the shape.

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 marked for the period 1975-1979.

This piece is a factory first and has no faults.

The bowl is 265mm across and stands 50mm tall.
