Question about this piece
A fantastic and beautiful pair of antique 19th century mintons English porcelain Louis XVI style Sevres style blue nouveau ground hand-painted and hand-tooled-gilt, oval-shaped covered vases. These Mintons vases are truly remarkable. Of oval shape with a parasol-shaped cover with oak leaf and acorn finial, these vases are of the most beautiful aesthetic and quality. The Hand-tooled-Gilding is of the finest quality, all hand chased with matte and burnished gold. The condition of them is truly remarkable with no gilt loss, no cracks, and no restoration. They are complete with angular and curved handles which have hanging oak Floral garlands, each supported by a gadrooned cup with curved decoration. The front panels are hand-painted with scenes of wild birds, while the reverse is hand-painted with scenes of flowers and musical spray. Both marked and stampped. French, Circa: 1850 The original Sevres vase, Vase à bâtons rompus 1764, is currently located in the Royal Collection Trust, in the United Kingdom, as it was originally purchased by King George IV.
