HI all,
Please is anyone able to identify my vase for me?
It's driving me nuts trying to trace details of maker, origin, age etc.
I've tried reverse image searches on the net, as well as searching for the text and image of the makers mark on the base, all to no avail other than a few morsels of 'mirrored' text idents on a famous web auction site! ( e + curved coastal shoreline!)
I have attached a picture of the vase itself and the marks from its base. We did have a pair of them but the cat decided that he didn't like them and trashed one of them to its doom!
The vase is approx 9 inches tall, 6.5 inches wide, with a depth of around 2.5 inches. All white glaze with gold/gilt embellishments.
Thank you in kind anticipation of any info that you can avail me of.
Stu

Sesto Fior is Sesto Fiorentino, which is in N. W. Florence, Tuscany.

Esty sellers say that C. A. Felce is the name of the factory but I can't find anything to confirm that.

there is also the Ceramica Sestese Archive, a documentation centre for ceramic technology that conserves thousands of models, plaster models, shapes, sketches and period photographs.
