This pair of French Sevres style porcelain vases dates from 1880 in the French Rococo Revival style. Constructed from porcelain and ormolu, the pieces display a sky blue glaze alongside white panels decorated with hand-painted floral sprays, gold accents, and swirled fluting. Each urn stands on a square plinth base and includes ornate gilt bronze scroll handles, a ribbed form, and decorative mounts. Measuring 54 cm high, 37 cm wide, and 21 cm deep, the vases suit placement on a mantelpiece within a living room or study. The decorative finish and traditional aesthetic provide an ornamental display addition for an interior setting.

FAQs

Originating in 18th-century France, Sevres style porcelain is defined by ground colours such as bleu celeste, hand-painted floral or romantic reserves, precise gilding, and ornate gilt bronze mounts.

These vessels combine soft-paste or hard-paste porcelain with hand-painted enamel decoration, burnished gilding, and cast bronze fittings finished using the mercury gilding or ormolu process.

Identification involves examining factory marks such as intertwined double Ls, checking for hand-painted details rather than printed transfers, assessing gilding quality, and inspecting chased gilt bronze mounts.

A pair of decorative urns provides symmetry and architectural structure when placed on a fireplace mantelpiece, sideboard centre, or console table within traditional or eclectic interior schemes.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, avoid abrasive chemicals on gilt surfaces, and clean porcelain areas using a slightly damp cloth without soaking metal joints.
