    Hello dear community!
    I have this pair of vases. Such a beautiful hand painting work, green apple colour. I’m in love
    Both have signs of professional restoration. But I am trying to id them.
    There are few references in sold lots and active listing online. Some sellers referred it to Minton, some - to Coalport. Both of the sides agreed about date c. 1820. No maker marks, only red X. One vase has some black mark, but I think it is maybe restorer left it there.
    What do you think about it, does anyone know this shape of vase or handles? What do you think?
    Thank you!

    There is something not typically British about these, although the floral painting looks British. The style of gilding looks Continental rather than British to me. With the dragons, I'm thinking a little later in the 19th c. However, this is a case of vague thoughts of mine. If British, I would be thinking Coalport, but you could compare the apple green colour to see if it is the same as Coalport's.

    Thank you!
    The interesting thing is I can’t find any similar examples with marks. So they are in green, blue and black colour. But no marks.

    So the P19 is written in felt tip pen, or similar? The 9 looks like a British 9, but if it was written recently it is unrelated to the origin of the vases.

    I think it is modern mark. Maybe restorer left it there. Not sure. Definitely not as old as vase.

    I agree. That, or an inventory mark.
