Small vase in sèvres enameled earthenware in speckled green from the 19th century. This vase has a beautiful speckled green glaze characteristic of the milet production in sèvres at the end of the 19th century. The signature affixed under the base is attributed more particularly to félix opta milet, who started as a modeler at the manufacture de sèvres in 1862, then decorator until 1879. In 1866, he requested permission from the town hall of sèvres to build a kiln at 6, rue troyon, an address close to the manufacture. It was at this time that he would use this stamp. After 1879, he started an independent business which was then managed by his son paul milet from 1890 to 1931. The vase is in good general condition. Signed below.
