PIERRE-ADRIEN DALPAYRAT (1844-1910) Exceptional pair of high obus vases with wings evoking the art of Japan. The lower parts present a decoration in relief, of vertical stripes, until the bulge. The bases simulate a heel in very slight projection. Enamelled stoneware proofs with oxblood and green coulures on a beige background. A restoration at the base of one of the wings . Each work is signed with a stamp in hollow DALPAYRAT under the base, one also bears a number, partly illegible.
