ANTIQUE COBALT BLUE & GOLD GILT PORCELAIN BISCUIT JAR WITH FLORAL RELIEF

This beautiful antique porcelain biscuit jar is richly decorated with raised relief florals in deep cobalt blue accented by hand-applied gold gilt. The domed lid with its stem-like finial completes the jar’s elegant Victorian silhouette.

Dating from the late 19th to early 20th century (c. 1890–1910), this jar was likely produced by one of the German/Bohemian porcelain houses such as Rudolstadt or Carl Tielsch, both known for their cobalt and gilt relief wares. Unmarked examples like this one were often made for export to the American market.

Condition: Excellent vintage condition. Light, age-appropriate wear to gilt, no chips or cracks.
