What periods do these blue vase pieces come from?

The inventory spans multiple centuries, with significant representation from the 18th, 19th, and early 20th centuries. Specific pieces date from the Regency era through to the Art Deco period, incorporating both European revival styles and Asian export wares.

How do I distinguish porcelain from earthenware?

Porcelain is fired at higher temperatures, resulting in a dense, vitrified body that often appears translucent under strong light. Earthenware and faience are more porous bodies covered in an opaque tin glaze to provide a smooth surface for painting.

Are the paintings original works?

The selection includes original oil paintings on canvas and board alongside period watercolours. Many depict intimate still life arrangements featuring floral subjects and ornamental ceramic vessels.

How were large floor vases utilised historically?

Large Imari and ceramic floor vases served as prominent architectural ornaments in grand interiors. They functioned as focal points in hallways and reception rooms during the Victorian and Meiji periods.
