About the Item

A rare pair of charming blue and 'decalcomania' decorated glass vases, mounted as lamps, on water-gilded bases. Vases French, 19th century, mounts modern. Why we like them We love this charming pair of vases, perfectly suitable for a quirky flat in town or for a countryside cottage. Created as a more affordable imitation of the prestigious and costly Sevres and Meissen porcelain, they are somewhat naïvely decorated with pastoral scenes, very much in the tradition of the 18th century. Condition Ready for placement and immediate use. Decoration restored. Currently wired for the US, however, may be re-fitted for the UK or EU upon request. Height excluding shade: 20 in / 50 cm Width of vases: 6.75 in / 17 cm Please, do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions at all. We are always here and happy to help.

Pair of Chinese Celadon Longquan Vase Lamps
Located in Richmond, London
A pair of Chinese Longquan ware vases in rare light-green celadon glaze, of the 12th–14th century Song or Yuan dynasty style. Fitted as lamps on gilt turned circular bases. Early to mid-20th century. The vases have the traditional pear-shaped bodies raised on slightly spreading feet, the waisted and flaring necks applied with two C-shaped dragon handles suspending large fixed rings, covered overall with a bluish-green glaze thinning to white at the edges and around the moulded peony scroll decoration. Why we like them We love the exquisite, individually hand-moulded decoration and the gentle colour of the glaze, in perfect harmony with the the flowing shape of the vases. History and Design Made in porcelain with raised moulded decoration under celadon glaze, and traditionally referred to as the Longquan ware, the design of these vases dates back to the 10th–14th century. Longquan celadon refers to ceramics produced in large kilns in Longquan, Jincun and other sites in Zhejiang Province on the east China seaboard as well as ceramics made elsewhere using the same techniques. The making of Longquan celadon dates back to the Northern Song...
