This auction is for a Pair of Antique French Faience (Fayence) Lidded Urns with Grotesque Mask handles and a RED Fleur De Lis Mark for H. Savy Marsailles circa 1780-1800.
The urns are in fabulous condition and came from an estate which had a Large collection of the finest, near perfect and very old china that I have ever seen - it was hard to believe such a collection existed outside of a museum.
These urns are representative of the type of items they had.
The urns, which measure approximately 14 1/2 inches tall, each have two period hand painted scenes and two wonderful Raised relief Rams Horned Mask handles.
Both urns are in very good condition with no cracks, crazing or repairs and only a few very small chips and glaze flakes. There are four very small chips to the edge of one of the lids (please see photos) and several spots of glaze flaking (bumps) to the masks on one of the vases (again see photos) and some light wear to the gold paint.
A spectacular and important matched pair of Faience Urns.
Guaranteed original and authentic.
