A Pair of 19th Century Continental Flower Buckets

This pretty pair of flower buckets were made in continental Europe in the 19th Century.

They are probably made of porcelain and give a very clear ring when tapped. Some of the gilt decoration has rubbed away, particularly around the rim of each vessel but the handpainted scenes remain clear and in good condition. To the front and back of each of the vessels are landscape scenes featuring buildings. These images are surrounded by further gilt and floral decoration. Under each lionhead handle there are painted butterflies.

The pots are in two parts; a large upper section with a saucer. The saucer has a upright rim, that means that fits inside the undeside of the main section. The large upper has a hole centrally in the bottom for water to drain. This may mean that they were intended to be used as flower pots – for houseplants.

The vases do have an inscribed mark that looks like a lower case g. I have not been able to identify which factory made these.

They would make a very handsome addition to a sideboard or dining table. Both pieces are in good condition with no chips or cracks.
