Buyer's Premium:

A three-piece porcelain figural garniture set in the Rococo Revival style, attributed to Continental manufacture and in the style of Capodimonte. The set is comprised of a large figural centrepiece and a matching pair of spill vases, all constructed from glazed porcelain with hand-painted polychrome decoration and gilded accents. The centrepiece features a female figure in late 18th-century attire pouring from a small vessel, accompanied by a semi-nude putto. The body of the centrepiece is formed from scrolling, serrated acanthus leaves and features a large applied yellow flower with a textured brown centre. The pair of figural spill vases depict male gallants in 18th-century costume, including turquoise-blue waistcoats and floral breeches, leaning against foliate supports that terminate in two tulip-shaped vessels in shades of pink, yellow, and cream. No factory marks or stamps are visible on the items.
