For other pairs of vases of the same form and date decorated à l'antique on a gilt striated ground, see the pair of vases Etrusques à bandes applied with gilt-bronze lion-mask handles, painted with birds against a gilt-striated bleu agate ground sold Christie's, New York, 21 May 1997, lot 99 and the pair painted after Lagrenée on a faux-bronze ground in the collection of the Louvre [inv. 5339]. A pair of ormolu-mounted ewers sold Alex Cooper Auctioneers, Towson, MD, 26/27 January 2013, lot 764, dated 1792 and painted by Nicholas Dutenda in beau bleu enriched in gilt with similar foliate scrolls and arabesques against a gilt-striated bleu céleste ground, is now in a private collection.
This pair of ewers, the aforementioned vases with lion-mask handles and the present pair form a small group of vases similar in size and style of painted decoration, all with striated gilding on variant ground colors, all made within a few years of each other and, despite the dearth of painters and gilder's marks, likely by the same artists.
