Rare & Fine Flower Encrusted Coalbrookdale Large Vase

$1,095 USD Offers ConsideredRare & Fine Flower Encrusted Coalbrookdale Large Vase

Porcelain:Antique:English

Due to attrition, items that you do find for sale are very costly. This fabulous vase is a remarkable example, standing 12" tall and loaded with a multitude of flowers of ...
