This is an elegant piece of Royal Copenhagen Faience or Art Pottery is in excellent condition. Faience is a type of tin glaze pottery.

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 724 for the pattern and 3207 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 Aluminia backstamp is marked for 1965 with a blue x below the letter M. 

The vase is decorated in a textured black glaze with rich deep yellow patterning and rim. 

This piece is a factory first and has no faults.

The vase stands 135mm tall. It is 95mm x 65mm across the base.
