Large Antique English Porcelain Vase (Urn) Hand Painted with Roses & Gilding, c.1820

$2,800.00

This large English porcelain vase, made during the Regency period, is campana-shaped and beautifully balanced in form.
The vase is hand-painted with a lush bouquet of pink and yellow roses and tiny blue forget-me-nots spilling from a green basket.
On the reverse, a complementary spray of pink roses continues the floral theme.
The painting is framed by intricate gilding, which features classical scrollwork, laurel motifs, and fine crosshatching, all richly executed in gold to elevate the composition.
The bold handles, square base, and wide mouth reflect the neoclassical design ideals favored in early 19th-century England.
Together, the hand painting and elaborate gilding transform this functional form into a decorative work of art.

Background

Josiah Spode I died suddenly in 1797, and it fell to his son Josiah Spode II to continue and perfect his father’s developments. In partnership with William Copeland, Josiah II continued the business for the next thirty years. Under their management in the early 19th century, considered by many to be the “Golden Age” of English ceramics, the company grew to be the largest pottery in Stoke and a pre-eminent manufacturer of fine ceramics of every kind. Josiah Spode II was appointed “Potter to the Prince of Wales” when the Prince Regent visited the factory in 1806.
