Art Nouveau Style‎ Lady & Swan Bronze Finish Figural Vase Heavy Cast Metal 425

Striking Art Nouveau–style figural vase depicting a classical female figure entwined with a swan, by the iconic Leda and the Swan motif! The vase is very heavy for its size, suggesting a solid metal construction with a bronze finish over a darker base metal. Interior oxidation and green patina in recessed areas are consistent with age and metal composition. The underside is stamped 425, commonly interpreted as a model or mold number rather than a purity mark. Very good vintage condition with minor age-related surface wear. There are a few tiny spots, including one on the figure's chest where the bronze finish has worn through or scratched to the darker metal beneath. These are cosmetic only, do not affect structure, and are consistent with age and handling. No cracks, repairs, or major damage. Please review photos closely. I have included pictures from all angles and both with and without the flash for all the details. • Material: Heavy metal with bronze finish (exact alloy unknown) • Marking: Stamped 425 on underside • Style: Art Nouveau / Art Deco revival • Subject: female figure with swan (Leda-) 6.5 tall Constructed of heavy cast metal with a bronze-toned patina. Based on weight, patina, and verdigris, the piece may contain a copper-based alloy such as bronze or brass, though the exact composition is unverified.
