Large sèvres porcelain vase, napoleon iii, 19th century - france
exquisite ornamental vase of enameled porcelain richly decorated with pictorial scenes of customary and gallant themes inspired by the flemish school, such as games of soap bubbles and children playing, along with two other cartouches of purely ornamental themes, elegant floral compositions of striking colors. All of them stand out against a bluish background, commonly called “sèvres blue”, distinctive of these pieces, as is the extreme delicacy of the workmanship. The corresponding seal is located on the base.
national manufacture of sèvres
originally founded in vincennes in 1740, the sèvres national manufacture moved to sèvres in 1756. One of the main european porcelain factories, it was successively named after different political regimes: royal, imperial and national manufactory. Still active, the firm continues to produce objects created since 1740, although its current production is largely oriented towards contemporary creation.
it was founded with the support of louis xv and madame de pompadour, with the idea of creating pieces for the court and competing with the porcelain productions of meissen and chantilly. In fact, the first experiments were carried out by the brothers robert and gilles dubois, from the chantilly factory. In its early years, the factory mainly produced soft pasta; hard porcelain, with kaolin, was not marketed in sèvres until 1770. It was the first french factory to use fine gold.
during the french revolution, the factory suffered a decline in production, but experienced a revival between 1800 and 1847 under the direction of alexandre brongniart, who brought the factory international fame. During these years, many important technical innovations were made and several contemporary artists collaborated with the factory. During this period a new gilding technique was introduced, which was made shiny by burnishing the surface with an agate stone. The pieces were also decorated with opaque gilding, which was made by rubbing the gold with very fine sand. It was at this time when, for ornamental vases, the cartouche became the central theme, like an oil painting, with a golden cartouche on a monochrome background. From the mid-19th century onwards, the dominant styles were eclecticism and historicism, and some models revived typologies of the past, such as the mannerism of fontainebleau and the baroque of versailles.
