Black-glazed pottery with wide bottom, narrow neck with molded band, wide flaring mouth. Around inside of lip-heart pattern. Back of body has ornate, double petalled (six each) flower mold. Front has oval medallion, surrounded by scrollwork.
German style gilt and hand painted porcelain vase. Protruding 'ears' at side, leaf shape and design. Top has flower at center with drooped leaves. At center of vase on front, pink and white roses with green leaves, blue and orange daisy-like flowers painted on. Made in Pirkenhammer, Germany (then Bohemia).
Vase was broken in three places at the back of the vase and repaired at some point in its history. Repair seems to be made with some type of glue adhesive, which is dried and present in a brownish tint around the broken pieces. There is a small, roughly 1 millimeter shaped triangular piece at the back of the vase that is missing.
