A delightful French veilleuse-style porcelain vase, likely Limoges, late 19th century, featuring an elaborately scalloped rim and pedestal base with pierced and molded leafwork accents. The white glazed body is enriched with hand-painted floral bouquets—roses, daisies, forget-me-nots—in vibrant polychrome enamels, all framed by ornate gilded detailing. While veilleuses were originally designed to serve warm beverages atop small nightlamps, this example was likely conceived as a decorative vase inspired by that form. Its Rococo Revival flourishes and brilliant palette make it a quintessential salon ornament—a small but spirited example of the enduring French love affair with floral porcelain and domestic opulence.
