The cobalt decoration is balanced by geometric and floral borders at the neck and base, while the domed lid is finished with a deep blue flame-form finial.

It would be equally persuasive in a Palm Beach entry hall, a Hamptons living room, or an English country interior layered with mahogany, linen, and collected porcelain.
