AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
An authentic entirely porcelain bottle with an entirely porcelain stopper, likely a perfume/ scent water piece from France, late 19th century. Possibly part of a Vieux Paris porcelain set. Richly decorated with gold ornaments and featuring unique, hand-painted landscapes on all four sides of the bottle. Also adorned with delicate floral borders and painted gemstones.
The style can be described as Neobaroque or Neo-Rococo, combined with “Jeweled” porcelain. The paintings of the idyllic landscapes around the bottle recall Romanticism.
The beautiful stopper has on its underside an orange-brown (iron-red) mark with text, which is unfortunately unreadable to me. This would indicate that the bottle comes from a chic and high-quality Parisian atelier/shop.
The seam at the bottom is not damage but a so-called welding seam, where the two halves of the unfinished bottle were joined together.
There is, however, a damage in the neck of the bottle, visible in the last two photos. It was neatly repaired at one time, but a piece is missing. Please study the photos carefully.
Furthermore, the bottle remains in surprisingly beautiful condition, with no other damages or chips, the decorations very beautiful and intact.
A unique and decorative object, which will of course be packaged and shipped with great care.
