Italian Art Deco Large Hand Hammered Brass Vase, 1940

Decorative vase made of brass that was handcrafted in Italy during the mid-20th century. Like copper vases of the same era, hammered brass vases were also quite popular during the mid-century modern period and continue to be sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of vintage and retro design.

The Italian hammered brass vase is known for its unique and distinctive appearance, which is achieved through a process of hand-hammering the brass material. This process creates a textured and uneven surface that reflects the light in interesting ways and gives the vase a rustic, artisanal look.

It features other decorative elements, such as etchings, engravings, or patinas, which add to its overall visual appeal. Some vases may be decorated with intricate patterns, while others may feature more simple and understated designs, are highly valued for their unique and artistic qualities, as well as for their historical significance as representative of mid-century Italian design. They are often used as decorative pieces to add warmth and character to any room, and may be displayed alone or with other vintage or antique items.
