Napoleon III Decorative Objects
NAPOLEON III STYLE
Under Napoleon III’s rule, Paris underwent a great rebuilding overseen by Baron Georges-Eugène Haussmann, which created grand avenues and lavish landmarks like the Paris Opera. Antique Napoleon III–style furniture was flamboyant and eclectic. It was also known as Second Empire style since it followed and referenced the Empire style of his uncle Napoleon I.
Developing from 1852–70, Napoleon III furniture was plush and ornate, matching the fashion for masked balls and socializing in salons. It borrowed freely from earlier French styles including Louis XIV, Louis XV and Louis XVI as well as aesthetics from around the world, from antiquity to Asian art. As writer Gustave Claudin remarked in 1867, the country’s architects worked in “a style which one would be tempted to call neo-Greco-Gothico-Pompadour-Pompeian.”
Napoleon III chairs were completely covered with velvet and lined with tassels; pouf footstools invited people to put up their feet. Sofas were upholstered with tapestries, and beds were adorned with gilt bronze and theatrical canopies. The addition of conservatories to homes led to new indoor-outdoor furniture, while the spirit of hygiene promoted by Baron Haussmann inspired bright, floral motifs.
Although the most ostentatious designs were for the elite, as seen in the Napoleon III apartments preserved in the Louvre, where red velvet, gilding and chandeliers create a cacophony of luxury, these trends influenced homes across classes as manufacturing made design increasingly accessible. Papier-mâché furniture allowed for elaborate shapes that would have been difficult to carve in wood. The malleable material was painted with chinoiserie patterns and decorative designs. It was mass-produced by factories such as Jennens and Bettridge with varnishing and mother-of-pearl inlays creating an effect reminiscent of Asian lacquer. (Surfaces that had been “japanned” — a specialty of Jennens and Bettridge — were intended to resemble lacquer work that was created in East Asia.)

Antique French large set toilet Pitcher basin ceramic Jules Viellard Bordeaux
By Jules Viellard
Located in LA FERTÉ-SOUS-JOUARRE, FR
Large antique French washbasin and its pitcher from the manufacture Jules Viellard Bordeaux (JVB).
The model is Rouen.
Rare to find !
Important pitcher and its basin in polychrome enamelled earthenware, model "Rouen", with decoration of lambrequins and vegetal scrolls, marks on the reverse in blue and marks in hollow «BH». Work of the end of the XIXth century.
In 1835, this factory was bought by the Irish David Johnston. He then produced pieces inspired by the very competitive fine English earthenware of Staffordshire. His company will employ up to 700 workers.
In 1844, Jules Vieillard, an employee of David Johnston, bought the factory in financial difficulty.
It was renamed Jules Vieillard & Cie in 1845.
Production is industrialized and refocused only on fine earthenware.
This quality earthenware will be awarded at the Universal Exhibitions.

length : 25cm / 9,9''
In good condition
- The basin
diameter : 41,5cm / 16,2''
