Item Description
A mid-18th-century French faience bottle from Nevers, of elegant flattened form with rounded body, narrow neck and four handles. The decoration features blue figures surrounded by trees within a landscape, contained in reserves framed by foliate patterns in orange and blue. Abundant green foliate ornament adorns the sides and neck.
Striking green drips and blue and orange bubbles across the surface add distinctive texture and visual interest, characteristic of 18th-century kiln firing of large vertical forms. These spontaneous effects lend authenticity material vitality.
A rare bottle with vibrant colours, characterful decoration and sculptural presence.
