Pair of Blue Art Nouveau Inspired Vases - Shirley Ware


SOLD

I have no idea about these at all. A search on Shirley Ware yields nothing bar a picture of a similar vase and nothing about the company. Possibly English, probably mass produced. Certainly the gilding is hand applied but the roses are transfers. They are graduated blue with pink decoration and art nouveau influences around the neck and handles. They do have a certain charm and while the finish is a little careless in places they are not chipped or cracked. Would make ideal theatrical props.
