CHINOISERIE STYLE

Emerging in the 17th century, chinoiserie appropriated the aesthetics and imagery of popular East Asian design for European-made versions. Reflecting the exoticization of China, Japan and other countries in this era, the word directly translates from French to “Chinese-esque,” which reveals its shortcomings as a style of furniture and decor that often stereotypically and reductively mimics Asian culture rather than showcasing and paying tribute to its artistic traditions.

The enthusiastically decorative chinoiserie style was propelled by influential tastemakers including French King Louis XIV, whose Trianon de Porcelaine in 1670 was inspired by Chinese architecture. Expanded trade between the East and West led to a demand for porcelain, lacquer objects, silk and other goods, which further informed the fanciful furniture being crafted in Europe.

Artisans working in the chinoiserie style used materials and elements like pagoda shapes, bamboo, lacquer surfaces, bird and flower motifs and other interpretations of Asian design on pieces that were frequently set against vibrant wallcoverings. This whimsical approach yielded chinoiserie furniture that boasted dramatic flourishes drawing on the natural world and reflected the dominance of Rococo during the 18th century.

As chinoiserie was shaped by approximations of Asian design by European creators, it had regional variations, such as Chinese Chippendale in England where cabinets, chairs and tea tables had wooden fretwork designs and “japanned” surfaces intended to resemble lacquer work that was created in East Asia. In North America, furniture makers in Boston and New York integrated chinoiserie-painted scenes into Queen Anne furniture.

Antique chinoiserie furniture has continued to be fashionable, from its popularity with decorators of the Hollywood Regency era — James Mont, Tommi Parzinger, William Haines and Samuel Marx favored the style — to contemporary interior designers, although it brings with it a complex history.

Pair of French Armorial Porcelain Covered Jars, Probably Edmé Samson
Pair of French Armorial Porcelain Covered Jars, Probably Edmé Samson

Pair of French Armorial Porcelain Covered Jars, Probably Edmé Samson

By Edmé Samson

Located in Morristown, NJ

A handsome pair of French porcelain covered jars, attributed to Edmé Samson, dating to the late 19th or early 20th century. Each baluster-form jar is finely hand decorated in the manner of Chinese Export armorial porcelain. The fronts display a colorful heraldic crest supported by a lion and unicorn and bearing the Latin motto “Sola Virtus Invicta,” meaning “Virtue Alone Is Invincible.” The armorial decoration is derived from that associated with the Howard family, Dukes of Norfolk. The reverse of each jar is painted with exuberant famille rose floral sprays in shades of pink, coral, purple and green. The cream-colored porcelain grounds are further embellished with delicate raised white enamel decoration, scattered floral motifs and gilt borders. Each jar retains its fitted domed cover surmounted by a gilded finial. Inscribed “Décoré Main” to the underside, indicating hand decoration, together with a red pseudo-Chinese seal-form decorator’s mark. These marks were employed by French manufacturers producing porcelain in the Chinese Export taste and should not be interpreted as Chinese or Japanese makers’ marks...
