With its cabled, domed circular socle this baluster vase is closely related to the oeuvre of Messrs. Benjamin Vulliamy and Son of Pall Mall, London. Extensively patronised by George, Prince Regent, later George IV, they were responsible for supplying much of the gilt-bronze mounted objets and furniture at Carlton House, often with the assistance of such French bronziers as Delafontaine. A closely related vase from Buckingham Palace is illustrated in Lunsingh Scheurleer, Chinesisches und Japanisches Porzellan in Europaïschen Fassungen, Braunschweig, 1980, p. 447, Abb. 525, while a similar garniture, almost certainly acquired in Paris by Edward 'Beau', Viscount Lascelles (d. 1814) for Harewood House, Yorkshire and mounted by Vulliamy in London in 1806, was sold by the Trustees of the Harewood Charitable Trust in these Rooms, 3 July 1986, lot 43.
