Unusual Baroque-Style Parcel-Gilt Hanging Vessel

19th century, probably Italian, now mounted with lights on the interior, the conical-shaped vessel with beaded edge and carved flowerheads and acanthus leaves on a green-painted ground, hung with a pendant tassel.
h. 31", dia. 13"
Condition Report: In overall good estate condition. Parcel-gilt and polychrome vessel with some light scattered nicks, chips, and losses to two of the carved flowers, unevenness of paint layers, and wormholes - all of which are consistent with age, material and use.
