Description: Pair of Antique Paris Porcelain Fluted Rim Classical Figures Decorated Vases – 11 inchesFor our Valentine’s Day party, we could not seem to get enough fresh, beautiful roses on the table – so starved were we after the long frosty winter for romance & springtime! We began by using a lovely pair of Paris Porcelain Vases from the 19th century – each one set on an end of our 3-piece mirrored plateau. The term ‘Paris Porcelain’ is broadly defined as porcelain made by artists around Paris from the late 18th century to the 1870’s. It is written that this style of porcelain was loved by Marie Antoinette & utilized by only wealthiest of French aristocrats. My mother loved it because it often employs raised flowers, birds & other animals on unusually shaped vases. She found it whimsical & happy!This pair of vases features classical aristocratic male and female figures painted on a peach-colored background – each figure surrounded by a wreath garland of Spring flowers & foliage. The backs of these vases are pure white as is typical with Paris porcelain. The edges & opening of each vase are cut in a leaf-like pattern & gilt trimmed. The opening at the top is flared & 9.5 inches. The overall effect is light, airy, lovely -- feminine & Paris sophistication. They were so lovely on our Valentine’s Day table – overflowing with gorgeous pink roses. They are so pretty! · Object: Pair of antique Paris Porcelain vases.· Origin: France· Material: Porcelain· Period: 19th century· Measurements: 11 inches tall by 9.5 wide.
