Samson, Paris — Pair Of Hand-painted Floral Vases With Raised White Enamel, C. 1850

£300    $404    €346
A fine matched pair from the Samson Paris workshop. Hard-paste porcelain, thin-walled and panelled, with gilt rococo leaf handles. Hand-painted garden bouquets encircle each vase; rims edged in gilt. Over the enamels runs raised white enamel (émail blanc en relief) creating precise linear ornament and lively highlights. Samson (est. 1845) specialised in high-quality pieces inspired by earlier French factories such as Sčvres, Strasbourg and Chantilly. Small differences in size and weight between the two vases are typical of hand production.
