Beautiful and extremely rare Empire period porcelain decorated with hand-painted designs. It has the original label on the base. "Silvio Ferrara ANTIQUARIO GIOIELLIERE Via Condotti" next to The Spanish Step By Maison Popov The piece is marked underneath with the underglaze Popow AT looking mark This artwork, never before on the market, comes from an important private collection Every item of our Gallery, upon request, is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity issued by Sabrina Egidi official Expert in Italian furniture for the Chamber of Commerce of Rome and for the Rome Civil Courts. The Popov factory was one of the most prestigious manufacturers of high-quality porcelain during the early Empire period. G. Popov’s factory in Gorbunovo, Dmitrovsky uezd, Moscow gub. Purchased from K. Milli in 1811. In the 1850's inherited by A. Popov’s children, Dmitry and Tatiana, and then to Dmitry's sons Vasily, Ivan and Aleksey. In late 1860’s was taken on lease by Zhukovl in 1872 sold to R. Schreder, from whom it was taken over by Khalatov. The last proprietor was Fomichev. Closed in 1875. Popov’s factory along with those of Gardner’s and Kornilov’s was a leading enterprise in Russia in the first half of the 19th century.  The products of Popov’s factory are rather bright  painting and really lavishly gilt.  This is a scenic saucer made by Popoff around 1820. Alexander Popoff founded the factory near Moscow in the early 19th century. The products were highly sought after and from 1810 until 1830 they produced the best quality wares. The factory was closed in 1872. The center of the saucer has a large wonderful landscape scene in it with a gold trim line around it and another gold trim line on the rim edge with a thinner line under that. The very elegant combination of the white surface and the elaborate, gilt pattern gives the items an air of elegance and festivity.
