Outstanding pair of vases made in France by Sevres or related Old Paris factory, 19th century. Just under 11inches high and width of base is 3 1/4inch. Square gilded bases with urn shaped vases. Scrolling handles beginning with spear shaped leaves are entirely gilded except for the moulded sun faces inside the scrolls. Black ground covered in a host of tiny gold and white flowers. The biggest area of both front and back of each vase is handpainted with a magnificent floral still life. Roses, daffodils, morning glory, anemone, blue cornflowers etc. This is outstanding painting of the highest quality. In general, the vases are in great shape and certainly, to the eye, they are perfect. However, upon close inspection, one vase has a long, thin crack on the section below the painted area. It is not visible unless you look very closely. There is also a fair amount of wear to the gilding on the base and bottom protruding rim, but not to the gilding on the vase itself and definately not affecting the beautiful flowers in any way.
