Royal Doulton Chinoiserie Lustre Vase

This is a most unusual bone china vase. It has a yellow lustre background and is decorated with a chinoiserie pattern. It features two stylised pine trees which have brown speckled trunks and branches with green and yellow pine needles, all of which are highlighted with gilt. Above each tree is a colourful butterfly, also trimmed with gilt. The top rim and the foot are edged with bright gilt. We cannot find this piece in any of our reference books. The tall vase is in excellent condition with no damage and rings true when tapped.
