The pure white porcelain has a seafoam green glaze topped with scattered pink flowers (camellias?). Three-dimensional white beads in groups of five surrounded by arabesques, all made of liquified porcelain clay (slip) in the style of moriage, were applied overall, making the vase very tactile as well as beautiful. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eThe pièce de résistance is the hand-tinted photographic transfer of the Palazzo Ducale (Doge's Palace) in Venice. The Doge was the chief magistrate in Venice, the head of State. The palace was both his residence and the seat of the Venetian government. It is now a museum. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eThis bowl vase stands 5 inches tall, about 4 inches across at the belly and weighs 1\/4 of a pound. It is in excellent condition save for some missing beads (shown). There are no cracks, chips, stains or other damage. This lovely piece was easily tucked into luggage when one went on a Grand Tour of Europe in the early twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e© \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/PrimpingYourHome.com\"\u003ePrimpingYourHome.com\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003ePYH 5601\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Primping Your Home Antiques \u0026 Vintage Home Decor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47834003013819,"sku":"5601","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/9101\/7147\/files\/ChatGPT_Image_Feb_27_2026_12_05_06_AM.png?v=1779998120","url":"https:\/\/www.primpingyourhome.com\/products\/italian-porcelain-souvenir-antique-vase-of-palazzo-ducale","provider":"Primping Your Home Antiques \u0026 Vintage Home Decor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
