Description from the seller

Pair of Limoges porcelain vases hand-painted with mounts in gilt bronze and cobalt blue background.

These vases represent the excellence of Limoges porcelain production, renowned since the 18th century for the quality of its hard-paste and for the refined hand-painted decorations. The mark 'T Limoges Peint a la main' confirms the French origin and the artisanal craftsmanship. The decorative style with an intense cobalt blue enamel and hand-painted gallant scenes, together with the elaborate mounts in gilt bronze with swan-shaped handles, reflects the influence of prestigious imperial manufactories such as Sèvres, highly valued between the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
