I wish I knew more about ceramics so am only guessing at Victorian. It seems too rich and bold but I am not sure which period it belongs in.
This lovely vase has sustained a bit of damage in the form of a: ½ inch long slender chip shown in photos 4, 5, and 6.
The graphite marks on the bottom willl be washed off before it is sent.

One of those well made pieces that even with a tiny bit of damage, remain a very real delight and a treasure! See less
