Item Details
Description
A French Sevres Porcelain Covered Urn. Decorated with Napoleonic scenes, and emblazoned with a stylized "N" and eagle. Side of urn is signed "H. Desprez Sevres". Underside of urn cover is stamped "M/Imp le de Sevres Lena 1806" 35" x 12"
Condition
Both the central painted portion of the urn and the underside of the lid sustain a craquelure throughout. There are approximately three vertical hairline cracks to the porcelain on the lid. There is one 1/4" chip to the rim at the top of the urn. The urn sustains areas of gilt loss or fading throughout, specifically to the upper and lower green painted portions of the piece. The entire piece bears a light dust buildup.
