Bearing the mark of an Imperial factory is this powder-blue glazed Chinese porcelain vase mounted on an ormolu Napoleon III stand. The glaze is very attractive and unusual, a pale turquoise powdered over with deep blue. Approximately seven inches high and 4-1/4 inches in diameter, the mounted vase is eight inches tall. Circa 1850, the French stand is about ten years later.
