Vintage Tall Italian Copper Amphora Vase
An Italian copper amphora vase from the 20th century, with an elongated body and high looping handles that give the piece a distinctly vertical presence.
The form swells gently through the shoulders before tapering toward a narrow, flat base. A cinched neck opens into a flared mouth, edged by a smooth rolled rim. These transitions give the vessel a measured outline, balancing the fullness of the body with the slender curves above.
Two copper handles rise well beyond the rim, turning outward before descending along the shoulders to pointed ends. Their open loops introduce lightness around the vessel, while visible rivets beneath the mouth offer a small construction detail.
Across the body, rows of elongated hammered impressions create a varied, bark-like texture. Smaller marks gather around the neck, stretching into longer impressions below. Warm copper highlights catch along their edges, moving through deep brown patina and scattered traces of green oxidation. The surface rewards a closer look, revealing subtle irregularities within the repeated pattern.
