This Recreated vase/jug was the largest of a set of four that I found during one of my rounds of second-hand dealers & op shops. They weren’t being sold as a set but the dealer just happened to have four of them ranging from a cute small size to this impressive large one, which stands at approx. 29 cm tall (11 1/2″) & weighs 1.3 Kg.

Given a very soft looking finish in creams, mauves, greens & pale gold highlights, it’s now another piece that stands proudly for a new owner as a Recreated Treasure.

  1. This is such a beautiful piece…reminds me so much of antiques I’ve seen from the Regency period. It feels like it should be on a table in a room in ‘Pride and Predjudice’!!! Such elegance should be in the shops today! (Haven’t seen this anywhere else in Metro Melbourne). Beautifully hand painted too!!!

  2. Thank you for your comments Crystal. This piece is one-of-a-kind, so the person who owns it now has something special 🙂
