Delft Blue & White Ceramic Vase with Sailing Ships

Description

Beautiful antique Delft-style ceramic vase featuring a hand-painted cobalt blue maritime scene with multiple sailing vessels on calm water. The vase showcases a classic flow blue technique with rich cobalt tones bleeding softly into the cream/ivory background, characteristic of late 19th to early 20th century European pottery production. The vase features an elegantly shaped Art Nouveau-influenced molded rim with scrollwork and wave motifs, a bulbous body, and footed base. The glaze displays natural age crazing consistent with its period of manufacture. No chips, cracks, or restoration visible. Please examine all photos carefully before purchasing. Approximately 7-9 inches tall based on proportions. Will be packed with extreme care in double-boxed bubble wrap for safe shipment. Due to fragility, shipping via UPS or FedEx with full insurance is recommended. International buyers please inquire before purchasing.
