Blue painted tall vase with lid

Hi Betty,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The mark looks like and 18th Century mark but isn't, and the signature doesn't match any of the decorators on record for the 18th Century, further reinforcing that this is a 19th Century piece.

A Sevres style hand-painted and parcel gilt cobalt glazed footed covered vase.
