Vase, decor ‘Rhodian’, Zuid-Holland, Gouda

 150,00

Beautiful dark green matte-glazed Art Deco vase made by Plateelbakkerij Zuid-Holland (PZH), the most influential pottery factory in Gouda between 1898 and 1965. PZH became internationally known for its innovative glazes and richly decorated plateel, producing more decorative ceramics than any other local workshop.

This piece reflects the factory’s shift from Art Nouveau to early Art Deco, with its deep matte colour and simplified, modern forms. The Rhodian decor was one of the first designs released in the first decade of the century and drew from Middle Eastern and Ottoman ceramic traditions. Typical features include stylised scrolls, floral motifs, and rhythmic repeating patterns—elements that made PZH’s work world-famous.

The marks on the base identify the factory, the artist, and the production year, confirming the jug’s authenticity. There is a noticeable chip on the rim.
