Very Large 19th Century Ormolu Mounted Sèvres Celeste Blue Ground Porcelain Box
About the Item
A Very Large 19th Century Ormolu Mounted Sèvres Celeste Blue Ground Porcelain Box with Watteau Scene Cartouches. This box consists of signature celeste blue ground of Sèvres porcelain, an iconic hue developed in the mid-1700s. Each side features hand-painted Watteau-style cartouches, depicting romantic pastoral scenes of elegantly dressed figures engaged in leisure, surrounded by verdant landscapes. These cartouches are bordered by finely executed 24K hand-adorned gilt scrollwork that complements the vibrant blue background.
The ormolu mounts, with their intricate foliate and scroll motifs, frame the porcelain panels and adorn the box’s base and feet. The robust proportions and meticulous detailing are characteristic of high-quality 19th-century French craftsmanship, reflecting the neoclassical and Rococo revival styles prevalent in the period.
The Sèvres porcelain manufactory, founded in the mid-18th century near Paris under the patronage of Louis XV and Madame de Pompadour, quickly became renowned for its innovative techniques and artistic quality. Known for pioneering rich colors such as celeste blue, Sèvres produced works that were highly sought after by European royalty and collectors. By the 19th century, the manufactory remained a symbol of excellence, adapting to evolving artistic tastes while preserving its reputation for luxury and refinement.
