Beautiful Arts & Crafts Heintz Sterling Silver On Bronze Green Vase Gr8 Design

Description

This auction is for a beautiful vintage arts and crafts Heintz Metal sterling on bronze floral decorated metal vase with wonderful color of coppertone or green and black background as shown in the pictures taken with and without flash. For its age, the vase is in nice condition, with somewhat of a dented opening and some minor scuff and metal wear marks towards the bottom. However, these blend in nicely with the background color. Someone has told me that the opening can be fixed by sticking a wood cork inside the opening and slightly pushing down on it. I don’t know if this is true or not. Other than what I have mentioned, this piece is in nice condition with no other chips, cracks, hairlines or repairs. There is some slight wear and dirt on the silver overlay portion. The bottom is marked with the Heintz Metal company marking, 8648B which must be the mold number, sterling on bronze and the patent number. The vase measures slightly over 5 inches tall by around 3 inches widest. It would make a wonderful addition to anyone’s fine arts and crafts or vintage metal collection. Again I must say that the green metal background coloring is just fantastic. Please review all pictures carefully as they constitute part of the description.
