Elaborate Pair of French Old Paris Antique Porcelain and Bisque Rococo Vases

About the Item

Amazingly romantic pair of incredibly detailed, handmade, hand painted nineteenth century Old Paris Parian bisque and porcelain matched mantel vases feature a woodland fantasy vignette, with a love struck, barefoot maiden appearing to swoon as her barefoot suitor leans forward to offer her a nest of baby birds. Both figures are nestled in Parian bisque tree boughs with lush foliage which appears to grow organically from the bases of the elaborately hand painted porcelain mantel vases, which feature intricately ruffled and scalloped edges and decorative patterns trimmed in 24 karat gold, with curliques of bright blue, green and red against a beautiful pink background. "Old Paris" is a loose term, denoting a production time frame from the late 18th century up to the 1870s. Larger factories may have signed their wares, or produced blanks for other, smaller shops to paint, but many pieces were unmarked. One of these vases is marked with what appears to be the number "74". The other vase is marked with a figure 8. Mantel vases measure 13" high x 11.5" wide x 7" deep. Each vase measures 7.5 pounds.
