1930s Pewter Vase with Figurative Relief

Description

A refined pewter vase produced by Ystad Tenn in Sweden during the 1930s, defined by its elegant proportions and understated decorative detail. The gently tapering body is set on a stepped foot, giving the piece a calm, architectural presence characteristic of Scandinavian design of the period.

A subtle relief medallion depicting a classical female figure adorns the front, introducing a soft figurative element that contrasts beautifully with the vase’s clean lines. The pewter has developed a gentle, time-earned patina, with surface variations that add depth and authenticity.

The reverse bears a discreet engraved monogram, adding a personal and historical layer to the piece. Stamped to the base Ystad Tenn, Sweden, confirming its maker and origin.

A timeless object that balances classical reference with functional restraint, equally compelling as a sculptural accent or as a vessel.
