Description
Rarely seen pair of Trent Art China (TAC) Art Deco vases by Trenton Potteries in a very pale Citrus Yellow or Indian ivory glaze. Urn shaped with concentric rings at the flared rim tapering to a waist, with a stylized floral bulbous middle, tapering to fluted base. Both with TAC stamps used between 1935-1942 on the bottoms with Made in the USA.
This pair of beautiful vases were bought in Mexico City in the early 1970s from a venerable high end department store Nietos, established in the 1920s which was liquidating all inventory due to its closing. These vases, along many older items from past decades, had been found while clearing their stock storage areas, were brought up and displayed on their sales floor. Hidden treasure even then, now more so.
Price is for the pair.
