Ernest Bussière "Ombellifère" Ceramic Vase
This iridescent glazed ceramic "Ombellifère" vase, designed by Ernest Bussière and produced by Keller et Guérin, depicts umbel blossoms in low relief, with six flowers whose stems extend away from the body of the vase to form delicate handles. This French Art Nouveau vase is a beautiful example of Bussière's matte iridescent glaze, which can be found throughout his modeled works.
