Although I can't find this pattern in any of the Gien resource books, it is strikingly and beautifully decorated.

The condition of the c. 1900 piece is excellent, with only the expected crazing, but virtually no wear on the inside. It measures 6 1/2" high by 9" in diameter. France, c. 1900

Standing 13" high, 5 1/2" in diameter, this striking Old Paris vase with a youth carrying a light in the reserve, is a striking plum red. Someone in its long, event filled century and a half has filled the bottom inside with plaster for weight (often items were weighted when put on mantles or shelves, so cats wouldn't breeze by and knock the piece off!). Condition is essentially good, with a spider crack on the underside, and a flaw in the making which is glazed and painted over o ...click for details
