A striking Egyptian Revival vase, dating to around the 1920s, combining fine French porcelain with gilded ormolu mounts. The white ground porcelain is richly decorated with polychrome and gilt motifs of winged scarabs, lotus flowers, and stylised Egyptian figures, symbolising rebirth and divine protection.
The vase is set within a beautifully cast gilt-bronze frame featuring winged sphinx handles, a pierced crown rim, and a lotus-leaf base, all typical of the early 20th-century fascination with Ancient Egypt that followed the discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1922.
Standing 36 cm tall, this elegant piece perfectly captures the Deco-era revival of classical themes through a lens of modern opulence. A refined statement for collectors of Egyptian Revival, Art Deco, or Grand Tour–inspired interiors.
