Superb Very Rare Pierrefonds Twin Handled Crystalline Glazed Vase
SUPERB VERY RARE PIERREFONDS TWIN HANDLED. THIS IS A WONDERFUL AND QUITE RARE PIECE OF CRYSTALLINE GLAZED FRENCH FAIENCE MADE AT OLIVIER de SORRA’S (COUNT HALLEZ d’ARROS) PIERREFONDS STUDIO WHICH DATES, I WOULD GUESS, TO THE FIRST DECADE OF THE 20th. IN A TWIN HANDLED VASE FORM IT IS DEPICTED IN A CURIOUS ARTS AND CRAFTS MANNER WITH A LOVELY BLUE CRYSTALLINE GLAZE OVER AN OCHRE GROUND GLAZE. IT IS IMPRESSED TO THE BASE WITH THE PIERREFONDS’HF’ (The Societe Faienciere Heraldique de Pierrefonds) HELMET MARK AND A MODEL NUMBER? TO ME THIS POTTERY STUDIO IS VERY REMINISCENT OF THE WORK OF POTTERIES IN THIS COUNTRY LIKE ELTON OR CASTLE HEDINGHAM – THEY SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME UNDERLYING ETHOS. IT MEASURES 8″ (20cm) H x 5 1/2″ (14cm) ACROSS THE HANDLES APPROX; AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION FOR ITS AGE AND TYPE WITH NO CHIPS, CRACKS, OR HAIRLINES TO REPORT – SEE PHOTOGRAPHS AND DETAILS. THIS IS A LOVELY, RARE PIECE OF EARLY PIERREFONT CRYSTALLINE FAIENCE IN GOOD CONDITION THAT DISPLAYS BEAUTIFULLY AND AS SUCH TOGETHER WITH A RELATIVELY LOW (IT WOULD BE INSTRUCTIVE TO SEE WHAT OTHER SIMILAR PIECES FETCH) START PRICE SHOULD GET CONSIDERABLE INTEREST FROM ALL COLLECTORS.
