French Indigo Blue And Gold Porcelain Amphora, 20th Century

About the Item

This indigo blue and gold porcelain amphora, from the 20th century, showcases the refined craftsmanship of Retier. Standing at an impressive 63 cm tall, it features a rich cobalt glaze contrasted with gilded highlights and polychrome decoration. At its center, a romantic neoclassical scene is depicted, framed by delicate floral and plant motifs, all hand-painted with exquisite detail. The ornate handles are sculpted with classical influences, while the base bears the distinctive Strasbourg 'Retier' mark, confirming its authenticity. This piece was likely created as a decorative vase, meant to evoke the opulence of earlier French porcelain traditions, echoing styles from Sèvres and other prestigious manufactories. Its removable lid further enhances its versatility and charm. Take into account that the colors on the items may vary depending on the type of lighting and the type of screen from which you see the images.
