Rare Antique MOORE & CO. Floral Bud Vase 1872 Porcelain Hand Painted Gilt

Rare Antique Moore & Co. Floral Bud Vase — c.1872 Porcelain, Hand-Painted & Gilt

A genuine Victorian antique dating to approximately 1872, this bud vase by Moore Brothers (Moore & Co.) of Staffordshire represents the Aesthetic Movement at its most delicate and assured. Rendered in fine porcelain, the piece carries applied high-relief Victorian floral decoration — each motif individually hand-worked and hand-painted, then finished with gold gilt trim on a white and cream ground. At 23cm tall and 12cm wide, the vase has an elegant, slender profile characteristic of the period's taste for attenuated ceramic forms. The printed backstamp confirms attribution to Moore Brothers — an important detail for collectors of 19th-century British studio ceramics. Weighing 631 grams, the piece is solidly constructed and has survived in fine collectible condition over more than 150 years.
