Exquisite antique vase in “Paris Porcelain” or “Vieux Paris”. The delicate hand-painted decorations based on gold create a rich and elegant set, thanks to the contrast with the white porcelain.

This piece was made respecting ancient traditions and the raw material (kaolin) by master craftsmen. "Paris porcelain" is a term that refers collectively to the various porcelain decoration workshops and studios in and around Paris. That is, it does not refer to a specific manufacture, but to the production carried out by more than thirty manufacturers within the limits of the French capital, from the mid-1700s to the end of the Second Empire (1870) approximately. Antique porcelain objects from Paris are the most desired by collectors and are present in many museums around the world.
