This piece is a Hollohaza Art Deco flared porcelain vase finished in a bold black-and-white scheme with a striking purple iris outlined in rich gold. The wide trumpet mouth and slim waist give it a graceful, architectural profile, while the gilt rim and stylized stems add a touch of luxury. Made in 1980 and kept in near mint condition, it shows clean glaze, sharp color, and bright gilding with no noted chips or cracks. It’s the kind of statement vase that looks just as good holding a few tall blooms as it does displayed on its own on a sideboard or mantel.

Hollohaza is one of Hungary’s oldest porcelain makers, founded in 1777, and known for fine hard‑paste porcelain, hand-painted decoration, and hand-applied gold detailing. During the late 1970s and 1980s the factory produced designs that nodded to classic Art Deco—crisp contrasts, strong silhouettes, and elegant florals like this iris. Collectors appreciate Hollohaza for its craftsmanship, export history, and accessible pricing compared to bigger names. Typical care is simple: dust with a soft cloth, wash by hand in lukewarm water, and avoid harsh scrubbers to protect the gilding. This vase neatly captures the brand’s mix of Old World skill and vibrant, modern styling.
