ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! A pair of ram head extra large vases/urns. Adorned in hand gold gilding of birds, butterflies, flowers, berries, and leaves. The gold is thick and textured. The ram heads are spectacular! Everything about the extrodinarily rare pieces is spectacular. Jaw dropping.
They measure a whopping 16 x 7\". Approximate measurements. I have included 2 size reference pics. Very heavy pieces of ceramic, gold, and silver.
They were looked at by an appraiser out of Detroit in the 80\'s. Their thoughts were Thomas Webb and Sons. The possible artist being Barbee. Dating them to possibly 1880. The paper with these notes will come with the pieces. I also had them looked at by a local Antique Roadshow appraiser that lives in the area. He was awe struck by them and said he has never seen a set of vases of this caliber in the area. Because there is nothing to be found online about them and they are unmarked, it would take a ton of research and knowledge to find a true estimate. That being said, I spent hours trying to find anything that resembled them. I failed. So, this price may be very low and great resale for an sale house. On another note, I did get a bit of input from a collector who feels they are German. I agree. Styling and images very much like Fischer and Mieg.
Condition-excellent antique condition. The base of the vases have some tarnishing to the silver/gold. I have not attempted to clean these pieces in any way. I\'m truly scared of them and don\'t want to damage or do anything that should not be done. Polishing will be up to the buyer. There are a few gold smudges from the painters, I assume fingers here or there. You can see this in the base pics. Almost looking like a marking, but they are not. Natural to the pieces. I found no chips or cracks. These may be urns. They appear more like an urn vs vase to me.Shipping-fees will be very high! I am shipping these in a thick box with tons of wrapping, etc. There will also be insurance for purchase value added. Also, a signature requirement. I can also ship each in seperate boxes if you prefer. Please wait for an invoice before paying! The shipping estimates do not include the additional insurance fees. If you would like a higher amount, please let me know. But, unless you can find an estimate of higher than the purchase price, the PO may not fulfill that amount in cases of damage.More pictures can be taken upon request.
