Louis XV Style Bleu Céleste Vase

Drawing from the luxury of Sèvres porcelain and Louis XV's famed bleu céleste service from Versailles, this elegant French porcelain vase features the trademark shade of blue and medallions revealing scenes of flora and fauna, including pheasants and swans. Adorned with gilt accents on the lip and body of the octagonal vase, the creation is mounted upon four ormolu winged women bowing with downturned faces. The voluminous flourishes of naturalistic motifs are exemplary of the Louis XV era’s organic stylings.

Circa 1860
