Compare with a similarly formed celadon-glazed vase, early 18th century, sold in our New Bond Street rooms, 6 November 2014, lot 4.
Vases of this shape, most often with a celadon glaze, were popular in eighteenth century France, where they were often embellished with elaborate gilt-bronze mounts. An identical example, with ormolu mounts, is in the collection of the Walters Art Museum, Baltimore, U.S., accession number 49.2196. Another similar vase but with celadon glaze, also with ormolu mounts and forming part of a garniture with two smaller vases mounted as ewers in The Wallace Collection, is illustrated by S.Jenyns, Later Chinese Porcelain, London, 1951, pl.XCVI.
