This Regency hall vase is a 19th-century Masons ironstone piece made in a grand style, standing 108 cm high and 50 cm wide. The body is ironstone with a deep mazarine or cobalt blue glaze, finished with enamelled and gilt decorations. The baluster body and domed lid carry hand-painted motifs of butterflies, bugs, and flowers, complemented by gold accents and a unique finial shaped like a bunch of asparagus with green balls at the top. The lid also includes small loop handles, and the base rests on a fluted foot with gilt detailing. It is suited for display as a central statement piece in a spacious hallway or foyer of a traditional home.

FAQs

Patented by Charles James Mason in 1813, ironstone china was developed in Staffordshire, England, as a durable, heavy earthenware designed to compete with costly imported Chinese porcelain. Regency era pieces often featured vibrant Chinoiserie decorations and rich cobalt glazes.

Ironstone ceramics were manufactured using clay mixed with ground slag, flint, and feldspar to produce a dense ceramic body. These vessels were coated in lead glazes, decorated with hand-painted vitreous enamels, and highlighted with liquid gold gilding.

Authentic pieces from the 1810s and 1820s typically feature impressed line marks such as MASONS PATENT IRONSTONE CHINA, possess considerable physical weight, and display deep cobalt or mazarine blue glazes with intricate hand-enameled surface detail.

A substantial hall vase serves as a focal point in a formal entryway, foyer centre, or spacious hallway. Positioning the vessel on a low plinth or pedestal against a modern neutral backdrop highlights its architectural scale and rich colour scheme.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to prevent scratch marks. Avoid chemical detergents, abrasive sponges, or immersion in water, as moisture and harsh rubbing can degrade historical overglaze enamels and original gilding.
