While the shape of this magnificent bulbous vase does not immediately remind us of the known spouted flower vases, it is in fact one of these so called tulip vases.
This vase is the large central part of a four-piece spouted vase, which rests on a ceramic base and is topped by a two-tier upper section boasting 15 spouts.
Provenance:
- A Dutch private collection.
- With Koekkoek Antiques, London, in the 1990's.
