This lidded vase, created by the fabriek Leperre-Durot around 1785, showcases the intricate craftsmanship of 18th century porcelain making. Its elegant form, adorned with delicate floral patterns and gilded details, reflects the Rococo style popular in the era. The base, featuring a square platform supporting a gracefully curved pedestal, adds to the vase's sense of balance and grandeur. The decorative motifs, including the intricate crown-shaped lid, highlight the artistry and skill of the Leperre-Durot factory. The vase is a beautiful example of decorative art, a testament to the artistry of the time.

The Leperre-Durot porcelain factory was founded in 1784 and shortly afterwards placed under the patronage of the three-year-old dauphin, the eldest son of the French king Louis XVI. The lid of this impressive piece is sur-mounted by the dauphin’s crown, and the handles are in the shape of dolphins (dauphin is French for ‘dolphin’). The crown prince’s coat of arms and monogram are incorporated in the decoration.
