Antique English Porcelain Footed Urn with Shell Motif

Description

Stunning antique English porcelain footed urn, likely dating to the Regency period circa 1810-1830. This exceptional piece features a finely hand-painted naturalistic panel depicting seashells, coral, berries, and a pine cone in vivid polychrome enamels — a decorating style highly associated with Spode, Coalport, or Derby manufactories of the period. The urn rests on a square gilt-edged plinth base with a turned pedestal stem, and features twin gilt acanthus-scroll handles. The rim is decorated with applied beading and rich gilt banding throughout. Condition is excellent with no chips, cracks, hairlines, or notable gilding wear visible. The painted panel retains full color vibrancy. Please review all photos carefully as we describe to the best of our ability. Dimensions are approximately 6 inches tall by 7 inches wide handle to handle. This piece will be carefully double-boxed with abundant cushioning material for safe shipping. Due to its fragility and value, insurance is strongly recommended. Serious collectors and dealers are encouraged to reach out with questions. A rare opportunity to acquire a fine example of Regency-era English porcelain.
