About the Item

A Very Rare Set of 10 Large Painted Tobacco Jars This set offers an intriguing glimpse into the world of tobacco at the start of the 19th century. Each toleware jar standing over a foot tall and painted with a unique 'smoker's' depiction to the front, including a sailor from the famous Bellerophon ship, an Ottoman smoking, and a kilt-wearing Scotsman among others, within painted gilt and dark blue frames, the domed tops with fitted lids painted with faux Chinese fretwork. English, circa 1815 Dimensions: H: 16 in / 40 cm Dia: 7 in / 18 cm The sailor's sash bearing the name of the ship 'Bellerophon' gives initial insight into the dating of this set, the ship becoming famous in the British empire as the vessel upon which Napoleon surrendered in 1815, a useful terminus post quem. The ship was launched in 1786. A Regency date is consistent with the dress and costume seen on the other jars.

Rare 19th Century Viennese Porcelain Hand-Painted Ice Cream Pail Vases

Located in London, GB

A rare and finely decorated pair of porcelain ice cream pails on stands, The decoration of the vases is outstanding: the four medallions representing neoclassical mythological scenes of Bacchus, Ceres, Ariadne and Europa surrounded by intricate motives "a grottesca" in vibrant colours and raised gilding. Fashionable in antiquity, for example in the Pompeian "Third Style", revisited among others in the Renaissance by Raphael in the Logge Vaticane, the "grottesche" acquired renewed popularity in the early 1800, with the extensive decorations for example of Villa Borghese and Palazzo Milzetti in Italy, or the Procuratie Nuove in Venice, formerly the Palazzo Reale. In in the mid XIX century Vienna, the Historismus movement revisited the idea too, an example is the 1862 decoration of newly built Renaissance Style Museum fur Angewandte Kunst. Our vases are a refined example of fashionable, elegant decoration at work: the ice cream pail was used in the setting up of the dessert display...
