Pair of Old Paris Figural Porcelain Vases, 19th Century - A striking pair of Old Paris porcelain vases, each modeled with an exuberant Rococo Revival form featuring scalloped trumpet mouths, pierced and scrolling foliate supports heightened with extensive gilt decoration, and hand-painted polychrome floral panels on a rose ground. Each vase incorporates a finely modeled classical figural group at the base, depicting children in pastoral dress, rendered in white biscuit-style porcelain and framed by cobalt blue and gilt accents. The combination of sculptural figural work, vibrant enamel decoration, and lavish gilding exemplifies the ornamental exuberance associated with mid- to late-19th-century Parisian porcelain production, intended as statement pieces for mantel or cabinet display. 15 in. H, 13 in. W, 6 in. D Condition: Good overall condition with no repairs noted. Minor gilt wear and light surface rubbing consistent with age and display.
