Napoleon III card holder

About the Item

Napoleon III card holder (card fray) Gilt bronze and enamel Origin France Circa 1900 Gilt bronze and Cloissone enamel with hand-painted Sevres porcelain plate signed by E. Horche Perfect condition Napoleon IIII style The Second Empire style (from French: style Second Empire), also called Napoleon III style (style Napoléon III) is an architectural style that was born in France under the Second Empire, during the reign of Napoleon III. It had great success among the bourgeoisie during the years from 1850 to 1880. Emperor Napoleon wanted to be surrounded by a sumptuous court. He tried to connect with the pomp of the First Empire and tried with his orders to promote the development of French industry. But the evolution of the decorative arts owes more to the Empress Eugenie than to the emperor. She is very attracted to the styles of the past, especially the Louis XVI style. She gives an important place in her apartments to the furniture of Marie Antoinette or inspired by the latter. ​
