This 1940s MCM Turquoise Tulip Vase is an exquisite piece of Franciscan Art Ware, showcasing the bold colors and organic shapes that defined early California modernism. The striking turquoise (or robin's egg blue) glaze and stylized tulip silhouette make it a standout sculptural accent for a mid-century or art deco collection.
Bring a splash of retro California style to your home with this vintage Franciscan tulip vase. Produced during the height of the Art Ware era, this vase features a dramatic flared rim and stepped base that perfectly captures the "space-age" floral trends of the 1940s.
Its compact size makes it an ideal choice for a vanity, bedside table, or as a focal point in a curated pottery shelf. The rich, satin-finish glaze is iconic of the period and pairs beautifully with both minimalist and maximalist décor.
