Victorian Parian Ware Vase

Antiques : Ceramics, Porcelain

 

Nineteenth century parian vase. Off white, with matte finish exterior, glazed interior. Probably English. Molded decoration of arches, with bellflowers and other floral and leaf décor. No maker’s mark. Has museum acquisition number on bottom, so this was probably a deaccession. Charming little example of this ware. Size: Approximately 4.5” high, 3” top diameter Condition: Excellent. No chips, cracks or repairs. Note that I try to be conservative about condition descriptions, carefully noting any flaws. Of course, with antique items, there will be some signs of usage, and/or manufacturing defects. But overall, my customers have always been pleasantly surprised upon receiving their items, and of course, I would expect a return if I happen to miss anything.
