Near Pair of Henri Ardant & Co. Limoges Porcelain Vases

Circa 1858-78, H.A. & Co applied bisque cartouches to the underside, each vase decorated with bisque classical maidens at the throat and gilt drop handles, hand-decorated with idyllic landscapes, horses and riders, white or pale blue ground, stepped base.

17.25 in.

From the Collection of Ethel Christian Bohnet, San Antonio, Texas

Gilt losses to rims; one vase's bisque figure with crack and repair to foot; the other vase's left bisque figure missing foot, and right figure with loss to right hand fingers.
