Here we have a pair of biscuit porcelain with gilt decoration, swan gravy boats. One has the hint of a Ginori mark, the other ". . .de Sevres?". I think they are Italian done in the Sevres style, c. 1930. The under plates measure 6" x 4 1/2", and with the swan boats, stand 3 1/2" high. Excellent condition with only some wear to the gilt.
This Italian faience handled jug is a formidable presence with its imposing size and armorial decoration. It has an over all white glaze with a putti-encrusted crest. The measurements are: 16" high x 12 1/2" wide x 7" deep. Essentially fine condition with some glaze chipping on the lip and the handles. Italian, c. 1920.
