Jean Dunand
Medium: Hammered copper
Dimensions: 7 in high x 3.5 in diameter
A remarkable vase dating from the very beginning of the Art Deco period, this piece, by the inimitable Jean Dunand, has a surface colored and perforated so as to appear like the scales of a fish or a reptile--its genius that its surface evokes both the natural and the industrial with apparent ease.
