About the Item

A fine and rare early 19th century Tucker and Hemphill porcelain vase. The vase is decorated with a gilt shield device surrounded by leaf and branch and ribbon decoration. (Also, note how the shield is reminiscent of Tucker's famous perfumes!) Tucker and Hemphill was the important first large-scale producer of porcelain in America. They operated in Philadelphia from 1826-1838, and pieces are extraordinarily hard to find and highly coveted by American collectors. For comparable examples, visit the Philadelphia Museum of Art's online collection. Measure: Height circa 6 in. Items purchased from David Sterner antiques must delight you. Purchases may be returned for any reason for a period of 7 days.
