Wilhelm Kåge 1947 Gustavsberg Argenta Vase Nymph A47 Three Footed Silver N**e - $595 Shipped

Magnificent and uncommon piece of mid-century Swedish ceramic art: a 1947 Gustavsberg "Argenta" stoneware vase, designed by the legendary artistic director Wilhelm Kåge.

This premium piece features a beautiful, mottled turquoise-green glaze that perfectly encapsulates the Swedish Art Deco movement. Unlike standard flat-bottomed cylinders or bowls, this is the highly sought-after Model A47, which stands elegantly on three stylized block feet.

The front of the vase showcases a hand-painted sterling silver relief depicting an elegant, elongated classical n**e Nymph figure standing amidst swaying aquatic reeds and flora. Natural coloring. Appears to be free of cracks and chips. Can use a professional cleaning.

Provenance & Base Markings:

The base of the vase is fully stamped and documented, confirming its precise pedigree:

• Gustavsberg Anchor Logo: The iconic factory crest flanked by the Swedish crowns.

• "ARGENTA A47": Design series and specific footed-model designation.

• Silver "Q" Date Code: The hand-applied silver letter "Q" indicates a definitive production date of 1947.

• Gold/Green Foil Residue: Traces of the original factory paper label remain on the base.

• Stands approximately 9".

Friendly reminder: Pre owned, new old stock and/or vintage pieces might have signs of wear, tarnishing, chipping, stress marks, discoloration, or bending that might have occurred during the pieces lifetime. Electronic screen brightness and different screen types may alter the exact color you see.
