Late 19th-Century Iznik-Style Vase by Samson

About the Item

An Iznik-style vase made by Edmé Samson et Cie after a 16th-century Turkish bottle vase in the collection of the Musée d'Ecouen. The vase’s bulbous body is decorated in a red, cobalt blue, turquoise, and green floral design of saz leaves, roses, and tulips. The neck is decorated with delicate floral sprays. The design is highlighted with gilding throughout, and is intentionally sparse around the turquoise area of the neck to mimic the wear of the 16th-century vase after which it was modelled. As with many other Samson Iznik-style wares, this vase is marked with the Arabic equivalent to the letter ‘S’, further adding to the vase’s playful exoticism. Dimensions: 14 in. H x 7 in. Dm at widest point (35.6 cm H x 17.8 cm Dm) Condition: Very good. Light wear to gilding. Two areas of chipping to red enamels on body, each measuring about 0.7 cm. References: Musée d'Ecouen, n°E.Cl.8397 Bonhams, 30 Apr 2019, Lot 37.

    Located in Fort Lauderdale, FL
    A Wedgwood jardiniere with lilac and sage details on a white jasperware ground. Jasperware is perhaps the quintessential Wedgwood clay body and is even considered by some to be a ceramic development on par with porcelain. Originally developed in the 1770s as dyed stoneware bodies (the most ubiquitous of which is pale blue) with applied white figurative decoration in imitation of cameos from the Ancient World, jasperware quickly expanded to a plethora of colorways as per Wedgwood innovation standards. This jardiniere, with lilac and sage decoration on white jasperware ground, is part of Wedgwood’s tricolor jasperware...
