About the Item

This elegant vase of attenuated proportions was given an unusual silver-luster glaze, and embellished with two medallions on a military theme. One depicts a young soldier with a sword and statuette of Athena, goddess of war. The other an older, bearded and helmeted warrior visiting a shrine. While there’s no maker’s mark, the classical proportions, Wedgwood-blue color, and antique-inspired medallions, suggest English manufacture circa 1800, and align the vase with the refined taste of Robert Adam.
