Sèvres Ceramic Vases with Blue Monochrome Decoration Attributed to Paul Milet

About the Item

Pair of Sèvres ceramic amphora vases, with marbled decoration in blue monochrome. Each vase has an ormolu mount with pearl friezes and two small garlanded handles. These two vases are signed below "Sèvres". Their shape, decoration and marbled blue color is typical of the work of Paul Milet, ceramist and son of Optat Milet, porcelain maker of Sèvres, who did not sign his oldest productions but from 1911, at the death of his father, asserted himself with his mark "MP Sèvres" in a dotted circle.
