On another side of the vase, a second elegant lady gazes backward at a small carriage supporting a large, beautifully detailed vase filled with lush foliage and vibrant flowers. This intriguing vignette adds depth and intrigue to the overall design of the altar vase.
The scalloped top of the vase adds an additional touch of refinement, further accentuating the intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail that are hallmarks of this splendid piece.
