Lot #731: Striking Tai-Hwa TAIWANESE Art Pottery Vase – Aqua, Gold & Black Butterfly Design

A show-stopping decorative art pottery vase by Tai-Hwa Pottery of Taiwan, a maker known for distinctive, highly decorative ceramic pieces. This substantial vase is a statement piece all by itself—no collection needed. The rounded body features a beautiful soft aqua/seafoam glaze contrasted with an elaborate raised-looking gold and black ornamental design around the shoulder and neck. Delicate butterflies and botanical motifs decorate the lower body, while the dramatically ruffled, flared rim and generous gold detailing give the vase an elegant, almost sculptural presence. Tai-Hwa describes its pottery as combining craftsmanship with innovative design, and this piece certainly delivers. The combination of Asian-inspired imagery, butterflies, shimmering gold decoration and unusual form makes it equally appealing displayed in a traditional, Asian-inspired, Hollywood Regency or eclectic interior. This is the kind of vase that doesn’t need flowers—it IS the arrangement. Place it on an entry table, mantel, console or pedestal and it immediately becomes the focal point.
