Old Paris Porcelain



Our large collection of Old Paris Porcelain here at Pickwick Antiques has always been a favorite of mine. The beautiful gilding, paintings and decoration make these pieces ones that are not easily forgotten. 


According to the blog - http://antiques-everyday.blogspot.com collectors all over the world and especially those in antebellum homes in the South seek out these beautiful pieces of porcelain. Old Paris Porcelain can also be known as "Vieux Paris". These pieces can be found as vases, urns, clocks, figures, inkwells, perfume bottles, and more. Old Paris pieces were created in and around the city of Paris from the mid 1700's to the end of the Second Empire.  Here's a look at some of our collection here at Pickwick Antiques.
