About the Item

A pretty white Paris porcelain three-legged compotier, with lid, decorated with golden fillets highlighting two masks in the form of women's heads. Period : 19th Century. Dimensions : height : 15 cm without cover                        height : 23 cm with cover                        diameter of the base : 15 cm   Paris porcelain, also called "vieux-Paris" in the language of antique dealers, is the hard porcelain made in Paris from 1770 to 1830-50, and imitating the productions of Sèvres.   Before 1770, a few factories tried their hand at soft porcelain, notably that of the Chicaneau family in the Faubourg Saint-Antoine.   The development of the Parisian manufactures and its surroundings really started in 1770 with the production of hard paste using kaolin discovered and brought from Limousin.  Despite the exclusive privilege of the Sèvres factory, many nobles obtained the right to run their own porcelain workshops.  Indeed, the edict of 1760 prohibiting colouring and gilding on porcelain did not apply to the nobility.   The heyday of these factories was at the end of the 18th and beginning of the 19th century. By 1850, they had practically all closed or moved to the provinces (Limousin and Berry) for reasons of profitability.

Canton Polychrome Porcelain Circular Cup, Period, Mid-19th Century

Located in CRÉTEIL, FR

Lovely polychrome porcelain bowl from Canton. We find on this Canton porcelain the characteristic decoration painted on a white background representing large polylobed medallions or cartridges alternating palace scenes and nature decorations with motifs of birds, plants, flowers, and butterflies. Period: Mid-19th Century Dimensions: diameter 20cm Solid and fairly excavated funds use gold. The artist painter uses the circular shape of the object to represent the scenes continuously. Here we find the Chinese characters in a palace, surrounded by friezes of flowers. The colors remain vivid, especially with light greens and pinks. In the second half of the 19th century, when Japan established itself as a source of artistic inspiration, and the image of China and its inhabitants tarnished, several Chinese porcelain collections...
