Pierre-Adrien Dalpayrat

Overall very good condition. The glazed surfaces with minor irregularities inherent in the making. The vase with a few small passages of prior restoration to the recessed crease adjacent to the upper portion of the form, visible under black light. The deep blue accents within the glaze are slightly richer and more intense than in the printed catalogue illustration. An impressive scale and strong presence when viewed first hand.
