A charming vintage European figurine set of spill vases.
A pair of charming hand-painted porcelain figures, each featuring a small holder at the back — a spill vase.
Before matches became widely available, households kept spills — thin rolled paper or wooden strips used to transfer flame from the fireplace to candles, pipes, or hearths. The spill vase was designed to hold these strips close at hand, making it both a practical and decorative object in 19th and early 20th century homes. Because of their appearance, the bright colours and faded gilding, these figures are true decorative objects with a story worth telling.
