887. A Pair Of Sevres Ewers With Bronze Mountings

A lovely pair of Sevres hand painted porcelain ewers with gilt bronze mountings, each on a pedestal base, with a dragon applied to one side of the porcelain and a lion's head to the other, the top, handle and spout in an elaborate foliate relief. The porcelain is painted in a bleu celeste ground with gilt floral medallions on either side containing hand painted pictures of birds and romantic still life settings, no two alike. The ewers measure approx. 11-5/8"H to the top of the handle.
