Pair of Vintage 1940s/50s Chico California Pottery Pink Fan Vases (3D Pansies & Gold Trim)
Owning one 3D ceramic pansy fan vase communicates that you appreciate retro cottagecore charm. Owning a matching pair of them, however, is an aggressive, unyielding statement of mid-century pastel dominance.
You do not simply place a pair of Chico California fan vases on a mantel; you deploy them like two hyper-dramatic decor sentinels.
Crafted by Chico Pottery in California during the late 1940s or 1950s, these matching twin vases feature soft blush-pink ribbed fan silhouettes flanked by three-dimensional ceramic purple pansies that practically leap off the clay. The rims are trimmed in heavy, stippled gold sponge glaze that adds just enough Hollywood Regency glitz to balance their sweet floral personalities, while the backs feature molded ribbon bows tied in gold.
Flanking a fireplace, dining sideboard, or entryway console with this pair instantly transforms your living space into the set of a 1950s Beverly Hills drama. They demand Earl Grey tea, crisp linen tablecloths, and an owner who is ready to gossip about the neighbors with absolute elegance.
The Vintage Pedigree & Artistry
Maker & Origin: Chico Pottery (Incised "CHICO CALIF" on the unglazed base rings).
Era: Circa late 1940s to 1950s Mid-Century California Art Pottery.
Quantity: Complete matching pair of 2 fan vases.
Form & Design: Flared ribbed fan body with broad scalloped openings and molded rear ribbon bow accents.
3D Applied Details: High-relief ceramic purple pansies with yellow/white centers, green leaves, and accent blossoms on both pieces.
Finish: Soft blush pink glossy glaze with heavy stippled/sponged gold trim along the rims and accent bows.
📺 Styling & Display Ideas
Symmetrical Mantel Setup: Flank a central mirror or vintage painting above the fireplace with one vase on each end for maximum grandmillennial impact.
Dining Table Bookends: Place them at opposite ends of a long dining table, filled with fresh garden roses, dried lavender, or wildflowers.
Credenza & Sideboard Anchor: Frame a vintage lamp or vanity tray on an entryway console.
🔍 Specifications, Materials & Condition
Dimensions (Each): ~8.5" Wide (Fan rim top) x 6.75" Total Height x ~3.5" Base Depth.
Materials: Molded Glazed Ceramic / Earthenware.
Condition: Excellent vintage condition considering the extreme fragility of 3D ceramic florals. Applied purple pansy petals across both vases are remarkably intact with no major chips or broken leaves. Factory-applied stippled gold rim details remain bright and crisp. Clean interiors with subtle, light age crazing in the blush glaze.
A Note About Vintage Items & Their Little Crimes
Many of the treasures at Honeyblue Hollow come from estate sales, flea markets, and consignment shops where interesting things wait to begin their next chapter. Because they existed long before they found me, their pasts are checkered.
Vintage means used: Expect honest, authentic character consistent with age and previous love.
The Smell & Storage Factor: My workspace is pet-friendly and smoke-free. Buyers with extreme sensitivities should review the full Vintage Items & Allergens note in my Shop Announcement.
