A PAIR OF FAMILLE ROSE ARMORIAL JARDINIERES
SECOND QUARTER 18TH CENTURY
Each of quatrefoil shape, enameled on one side with a
probably continental coat-of-arms and on the other sides
with fowing plants and rockwork, the fat rim with trellis
diaper work, fower heads and cartouches of landscapes,
the base with trellis diaper work, fower heads and
elongated piercing

16º in. (41.2 cm.) high; 20º in. (51.5 cm.) wide (2)

$40,000-60,000

These lavishly-enameled, large-scale jardinières must
have been an important commission, but the coat-of-
arms – in a northern European style and featuring a
coronet - remains unidentifed.
