Description from the seller

Excellent Antique Paris Porcelain (Vieux Paris) Empire Period Milk Jug / Creamer – Painted en Grisaille with Pastoral Landscape, ca. 1810–1830


An elegant and finely crafted antique hard-paste porcelain creamer/milk jug dating from the French Empire / Restoration period (first third of the 19th century). The piece is a classic example of "Vieux Paris" (Old Paris) porcelain, produced by one of the reputable unnamed Parisian manufactories of the era.
The body of the jug is beautifully hand-painted en grisaille (monochrome tones), featuring a romantic, detailed pastoral scene depicting a standing figure within a landscape with trees and a rustic fence.
The upper rim, foot, and the beautifully scrolled handle are heavily accented with authentic period gilding, further enhanced with classic incised/burnished geometric and floral gold patterns (gilded palmettes and scrolls).
As is highly typical for Paris porcelain workshops of this specific golden era (such as Dagoty, Nast, or La Courtille), the base is left unsigned and unmarked, showing a characteristic unglazed outer foot rim with minor manufacturing kilns spots inherent to early 19th-century production.
Condition Report:
Excellent antique condition. Completely free of any chips, cracks, hairlines, or restorations. Only minor, natural, age-appropriate wear to the gilding, which confirms its authenticity and pristine state for a 200-year-old piece of porcelain.

This item will be carefully packed, with lots of protective material and in a sturdy shipping box. Shipping with insurance and tracking code.
