Striking vintage brass vase marked “Definitive” on the underside.
The vase has a tall, elegant ovoid form with a narrow circular opening and a bold abstract geometric design created through contrasting dark patination against the warm brass surface. The sweeping asymmetrical pattern and stepped/sawtooth detailing give the piece a distinctive Modernist, Mid-Century Modern and Art Deco / dinanderie-inspired aesthetic.
