Prunus Blossom Vase

This is a really superb little vase made of soft paste porcelain made by St. Cloud of France in the mid to early 18th century. It is rare to find pieces like this but they ahve been ID as having been made by them and they are always marked as seen. The vase is decorated with prunus branches with blossoms on both sides with the thickest part of the branch forming the handles. The softpaste is really white and looks amazing! The detail of the relief design is superb as well. Really does not get much better than this except maybe in size. The piece is marked underneath as shown. Never could figure out what it stands for but these little cuties are always marked the same not that you see them often at all. I did have one other example years ago. It is certainly a superb piece and in perfect condition except I think one of the little round balls / flower buds has chipped off. The inside of the vase is unglazed except around the top. The vase is 4.5 inches tall, 2 inches deep and 2.625 inches wide. Please email me for more information or other pictures.
