Lorelei Vase — Bottom Mark

1902

Metropolitan Museum of Art

The base of the 1902 Lorelei vase reveals the incised conjoined "AA" monogram within a square, "VAN BRIGGLE," and the date "1902" — the earliest form of the pottery's mark. These markings are essential for authenticating and dating Van Briggle pieces.
