SUPERB ANTIQUE ROYAL BAYREUTH SCENIC LADY w FAN VASE
From a local estate comes this terrific Royal Bayreuth vase. Measuring approximately 5" by 4 1/4", I am not sure of its exact date, though I estimate it to be at least from the 1920s or 30s.
The charming porcelain vase is beautifully styled in an urn shaped design. It's marked on the bottom as follows:
Royal Bayreuth
Underneath the maker's name is a "P" and a "T" each in a shield.
On one side of the vase is a beautiful scene of a Victorian woman. She's quite lovely wearing her large pre Gibson Girl styled hat and rust colored dress with a white shawl. She's holding a fan and standing in a filed of pastel colored flowers and ferns with an incredible yellow sunset in the horizon. The backside of the vase simply has a lavendar fading into a beige background.
Please bear with my pictures as it was hard to truly capture the essense of this highly collectible piece.
The vase is what I would consider near mint...no damage, no repair. The lovely soft decorations are intact and unfaded, with no apparent wear other than the most minor scratching of the finish where the woman's hair is on her shoulder. I've included a view to illustrate this tiny flaw, which, in my opinion, does not detract fromthe overall look and beauty of this charming find. Surely a welcomed addition to the most advanced of collections, why not add this one to yours today?

1885 HAND PAINTED HAVILAND LIDDED SUGAR CONTAINER
This is superb! I purchased this years ago from the great granddaughter of the original painter of this piece. The porcelain lidded dish was made by Haviland (in France) but sold as a black to porcelain and china painters. It's stamped CFH on the bottom and also has a cursive "L" incised into it.
The artist signed this M.C.P. Watson 1885.
The painting is superb. One side has pink flowers, each flower with realistic and beautifully detailed, I believe they are dogwoods. One the other side is another lovely flower with a butterfly in amazing detail.
Perhaps the coolest thing about this is that the artist painted ants on the lid! A bit of whimsy, perhaps to indicate that this was meant to house sugar and the ants would be trying to get to the sweetness!
The sugar container has two little handles and a fitted lid. It is in impeccable condition, authentic and Victorian and like new! Not a nick or a chip or a hairline or a repair. Rare indeed!
