About the Item
Pair of very large French blue glass and ormolu vases
French, 20th Century
Height 153cm, width 50cm, depth 53cm
Blue glass and shining gold ormolu are combined to create this stunning pair of vases. Their design celebrates the refined Neoclassical style and the playful Rococo style.
The Classical-ovoid-shaped vase bodies are crafted from vivid striped, blue glass. Each of the bulbous bodies is mounted with several ormolu features. The acanthus-shaped handles transition into Roman-style columns and terminate with a lyre-shaped motif. This is held by charming putti who hold delicate tasseled reigns in their hands. Joining the handles is a rich garland draped across the vases.
Each vase is topped by a blue glass lid with a bird finial. The pair of birds, most likely doves, is a symbol of lasting love.
A square plinth on four feet supports each vase. An elaborate cartouche filled with a coat of arms featuring the fleur de lis occupies each of the sides. Drapery and flowers are also included in the design of the ormolu stands.
Executed from bold coloured materials, this pair of vases would look superb in both traditional and modern interiors.
