About the Item

The extraordinary pair of covered vases is in baluster form, each resting on a circular gilt bronze base adorned with a band of raised foliate motifs. The bases support porcelain socles decorated with gilt foliate scrollwork over a turquoise ground. Above, the bodies are painted with continuous reserves depicting winged putti in pastoral settings, engaged in various activities such as playing musical instruments, carrying floral garlands, and drawing a small chariot. The painted scenes are framed by gilt borders, with the upper shoulders featuring scrolling gilt foliage over the turquoise ground. The rims are fitted with gilt bronze mounts of beaded edges and a projecting band of shaped and pierced ornament. Each vase is fitted with a domed porcelain cover decorated in turquoise with gilt foliate scrolls, surmounted by a gilt bronze finial in the form of a pinecone. The covers are removable, revealing the gilt bronze-mounted rims. The turquoise grounds throughout the vases and covers are further enriched with gilt detailing, complementing the ormolu mounts. The mounts and finials are precisely cast and chased, matching the decorative vocabulary of the bases and collars. These vases are produced in the Sèvres style, with decoration characteristic of late 19th-century French porcelain, combining finely painted figural reserves with rich turquoise and gilt ornamentation. The porcelain is supported and enhanced by the use of gilt bronze mounts, which provide structural stability and visual continuity between the ceramic and metal elements.
