AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This majolica vase from the late 19th century, in full Neo-Renaissance style, features a cobalt blue bottom decorated with grottoes, grotesques, and classical motifs that echo the sixteenth-century tradition. The large handles are formed by entwined and spotted serpents that start from lion-head reliefs. The main body shows two historied scenes enclosed in medallions: on the front Venus’s dressing outdoors, and on the back two winged cherubs in flight among the clouds.

Dimensions: 81x48x40 cm

Good state of conservation, chipping at the base and defects due to the normal passage of time and use; any flaws have been shown in the photographs.
Please study the photographs carefully as they are an integral part of the description.

Shipping with packaging appropriate to the piece's fragility.
Tracked shipping including secure packaging; any duties and customs charges will be borne by the buyer.
