Antique Hand Painted Art Porcelain

Dowry and Decorative Art

Vienna Austria Tussie Mussie Figural Handle VaseOur Ruby Lane shop has a beautiful selection of hand painted art porcelain.

Pickard Studios perfected the art porcelain market. But, at the turn of the 20th Century, hand painting porcelain was a much loved hobby of ladies and gentlemen.

Many dowry china sets and other decorative porcelain items were all hand painted. Some of these pieces have survived and are wonderful to display and appreciate as part of history.

Antique Silver Plated Brides Basket Brides Bowl Poole Silver Company Pink Enameled Cased Glass Bowl Ornate Silver Plate Holder

Victorian Silver Plate and Glass Bride's Basket Mt. Washington GlassFeatured here we have an outstanding example of a Victorian Bride's Basket or Bride's Bowl. These pieces were typically given as wedding gifts to the bride in the late 1880's to around 1905 when they fell out of favor. The bowl is pink burmese glass made by the Mt. Washington Glass Co. There is a hand painted enameled decoration of flowers and swags on the interior of the bowl.

The elaborate, extremely well made, silver plated holder is from the Poole Silver Company, Taunton. Mass. and is marked quadruple plate.
The handle has a twisted pattern with beading overlapping this. The top of the handle comes to a point in a flowery Art Nouveau pattern.

This is a stunning display piece!
