These two decorative vases are outstanding examples of the British brand Crown Ducal's fine ceramic production, manufactured in the 1920s by A.G. Richardson & Co. Ltd. in Stoke-on-Trent, England. With their elegant shape, narrow neck, and bulbous base, as well as hand-painted bird and blossom ornamentation, they embody the charm and sophistication of the Art Deco style.

The Crown Ducal brand was founded in 1915 by Albert G. Richardson and quickly became a major name in the British ceramics scene. Especially in the 1920s and 1930s, Crown Ducal was known for its innovative glazes, aerographed color gradients, and stylish designs. The then Art Director, W.B.
