Art Nouveau Nude Decorated Lidded Porcelain Jar, Limoges, French, Circa 1905
About the Item
Uniquely decorated porcelain Limoges jar with a wide winged span nude woman and a duck flying out of her hair, perhaps beckoning her to join in the flight. Her legs and feet end as one "a la mermaid". She is quite beautiful and is holding a bouquet of flowers in front of her. The same image appears on the other side. She is hand painted with brown hair, skin tones, with white and black detail to the "butterfly like" double wings. The duck is painted brown and black. Two gold leaf bands circumvents the vessel at the bottom and two thirds up. A blue band above the gold band at the base completes the hand painted decoration of the exterior. The interior of the jar is painted a light colored lime green. The underneath is clearly marked "P L Limoges, France" (see images). The original brass colored lid accompanies the piece. The condition of the jar is excellent, original, and there is no overpaint or chips. The lid to the jar has several chips around the circumference base and has some wear. Overall, a beautiful piece of French porcelain with an unique Art Nouveau form and decoration; an attractive vanity piece.
Size: 8 1/2" high x 5 1/4" diameter at the base; 3 3/4"diameter at the top.
Limoges began making pottery in the late 18th century and is still active today.

- Victorian Porcelain Spittoon, circa 1880 by Imari, JapanLocated in Incline Village, NVThe mark on the underneath (see image) indicates that this spittoon is of Japanese Imari porcelain, manufactured circa 1880, and made specifically for the American market for the preponderance of bars and saloons at that time. These were popular from 1865 to the turn of the century; this is a particularly fancy and elaborate example. Note the copious and highly detailed and beautiful floral decoration to the inside of the upper portion of the spittoon; pretty fancy for something meant for spit and saliva! Fantastic and all original condition with no cracks, no chips and very bright paint in sharp colors of blue rust and pink, and meticulously painted in a floral pattern. Several of these would have been “stationed” in strategic places within a saloon. This is a wonderful piece of porcelain, and quality item of saloon and Western United States history...Category
