"Pair Of Capodimonte Vases - Late Nineteenth"
Pair of polychrome vases with antique-inspired decoration, stamped by the famous Royal Manufacture of Capodimonte, recognized for its high-quality porcelain since 1743. With a neck decorated with ivy and flowers, each of its vases presents on its potbellied part scenes revolving wheels in relief, from the period of Greco-Roman Antiquity. There follow scenes recalling different key moments of this era: warriors or gladiators sporting swords and shields, passing by the oracle in front of his brazier preparing to sacrifice a goat, to musicians crowned with laurels playing the lyre and the devil. In multiple colors, enhanced with petals in purple, yellow and orange hues, these vases are underlined with gold borders that magnify the whole. This Pair of Capodimonte vases in shimmering colors will delight lovers of antiques looking to bring an antique touch to their interior decoration.
