Six Decorative Ceramic and Porcelain Figurines and Spill Vases - A collection of six decorative ceramic and porcelain items, including figurines and spill vases in various European styles such as Rococo-revival and Art Nouveau. The lot features a large polychrome porcelain spill vase with elaborate scrollwork and a seated figure in 18th-century style dress, and a smaller companion spill vase with applied floral decoration in the style of Capodimonte. Also included is a figural candlestick holder with hand-painted floral accents, and a large cream-glazed figurine depicting a lady in a voluminous dress standing beside a flared, shell-shaped vessel, reminiscent of German Art Nouveau bisque ware from the early 20th century. The collection is further comprised of a small white glazed figurine of a seated cherub in the style of Camille Naudot and a small polychrome character figure wearing green garments and a wide-brimmed pink hat. The items are constructed from glazed porcelain and ceramic with various hand-painted and applied details. No factory or maker marks are visible from the provided perspective, though the styles are consistent with late 19th and early 20th-century German and English manufacturers.
