Tulipieres first originated in 1600s London during the height of “tulip mania”, and were initially used to grow tulip bulbs—the bulbs were placed so a single bloom would grow from each spout. Now, they are more commonly used for cut flowers. This stunning, pair of hand crafted tulipières is made in the classic Rouen pottery with floral decorations and heraldic crests. Sourced from a brocante in Marseille. Stamped Péronne 2115 and Dives sur mer. dimensions: 3" x 3.5" Show more
