"Important Pair Of White Porcelain Vases, Said To Be Marriage Vases, Of Good Size, Early 20th Century"
Beautifully proportioned, this pair of so-called wedding vases has an open neck and is richly decorated with sheaves of foliage and blooming flowers, on a base with pretty scrolls decorated with reed fruits and decorated in its center with a fleur-de-lis, resting on a large, generous scalloped base. The open neck with an ornamented edge of a pretty movement and encircled by a protruding border. The exceptional feature of this pair of generously shaped pieces is its paste and its glaze on an immaculate white, elegantly highlighting its ornamentation with strong decorative power, whether it is a wink in a modern decor to which they adapt, or on a piece of furniture, a console or a fireplace in a classic decor. Large in size and offering a beautiful silhouette, this remarkable decorative pair is preserved from any defect and is in new condition, yet from the first half of the 20th century coming from Limoges, cradle of this know-how of working with caolin... (no signature but provenance assured)... See photos
