Pair of Sevres-Style Porcelain Urns France, late 19th century Hand-painted porcelain with gilt decoration Each: 17 1/4 × 5 in.
This elegant pair of cobalt blue porcelain urns is finely hand-painted with continuous scenes of playful cherubs in Arcadian landscapes, framed by raised gilt detailing. The classical form, elaborate gilding, and vibrant palette evoke the grandeur of 18th-century Sevres production. Each base bears a painted Sevres-style interlaced “L” mark enclosing “BB” and the incised number “F 31L,” likely referencing a decorator or modeler. These vases exemplify the high craftsmanship and decorative flair popular among Belle Époque collectors and the European aristocracy.
