Click for larger image

This is a magnificent piece! Huge vase, possibly a floor vase, in the Sgraffito technique by Josef Ekberg, It measures 14" high, 4 3/4" in diameter at the bottom and 20 1/2" in circumference at the widest point. Add to the monumental size the fact that the shape and the pattern are great too, and you have a fantastic, rare piece. Fully signed on the bottom Gustafsberg 1918, J. Ekberg. Very good condition. It has some minor firing cracks on the inside that do not go through to the outside and are of no consequence. Slightly dirty on the inside too, it has been used as a vase. A rare piece.
