This listing is for a vintage "IN GREAT VINTAGE/PRE-OWNED CONDITION: RARE, WALLY FRANK, TURKISH/OTTOMAN/ANATOLIAN HAND CRAFTED ORNATE ARTISAN CERAMIC/CINI NARGILE/HOOKAH BASE SHISHA/SISE, VASE?, MADE IN TURKEY".
Design/Style
: This vintage cini ceramic (a.k.a. Iznik) item is made in Turkey for Wally Frank Inc. I was told this is a nargile/hookah base (shisha/sise) for tobacco use. It could also be use as a vase or a decorative art piece. The craftsmanship is stunning and displays traditional Turkish/Ottoman/Anatolian designs and colors on it.
Markings
: Stamped/marked "Made in Turkey-Wally Frank" at the bottom.
Size
: It is about 6.5 inches tall; about a little over 1 inch in diameter on top opening/mouth; and about 2 and 1/4 inches diameter at the bottom/foot.
Condition
: It
is in great vintage/antique/pre-owned condition. It is clean, no major damage.
Since this is hand made by artisans, it may show imperfections on its designs. It may have some surface scratches, minor loss/cracking of the glazing, minor flea bites, and other minor imperfections which are normal and expected from vintage/pre-owned items. These imperfections add character and charm to the item.
I do not clean vintage/antique/pre-owned items and leave that to the new owner.
