Continental SËvres Style Porcelain and Gilt Brass Covered Urn. The vase of baluster form, painted in an eggshell-finish with pastel-hued enamels with scantily-clad Venus and cupid, with blue and pink ribbons, in a clearing by a plinth, surrounded by grasses and flowering roses and trees, between teal blue neck and foot, painted with parcel gilt scrolls, gilt bronze mask handles and mounts. Due to the use of a single long screwed rod, this item has not been checked for marks. Circa 1980. 25 3/4" H. Minor wear to enamels; body drilled for rod.
