Description from the seller

It is a faience vase, most likely from Longwy, characterized by its cloisonné enamel technique with black lines and its rich floral decoration.
Features
Material and Technique: The vase is made of faience with relief-crowned enamels, a specialty of Longwy for over a century. The technique involves printing the design in black, then filling each cell with colored enamel, which becomes very glossy after firing.
Style and Decor: The stylized polychrome floral decor on a predominantly blue background features oriental influences, notably Japonism, which was highly appreciated in productions from the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Manufacturing: The production of these parts is a delicate manual process, demonstrating a high level of artisanal quality.
